    Wounded Warriors: Their Last Battle
    Many military experiences impact peaceful dying for veterans – even though their death might occur decades later. The stoic military culture, combat training, and war itself c...

This presentation will sensitize participants with the unique needs of veterans as they age and face the end of their lives. Join Deborah Grassman, author of Peace at Last: Stories of Hope and Healing for Veterans and Their Families, for a presentation you won’t want to miss.

    Ms. Grassman is an RN who has done extensive work among veterans facing terminal illness, particularly through the Veteran’s Administration System. Plan to attend this afternoon session and learn more about the unique needs facing our veterans as they confront the end-of-life.

    This will be an afternoon conference held in Denton, TX. Details will be made available in the early Fall 2012 through the DAPEC website and e-mails. Make sure you are on our e-mail list, by contacting us at DAPEC@AOL.com
