A surprisingly upbeat conversation about a critically important topic: Fifteen years ago, Dvora Corn, an American olah to Israel, dived head-first into a societal chasm that rapidly altered the prevalent attitudes about end-of-life treatment. Partnering with her husband, Dr. Ben Corn, Dvora’s Gisha L’Chaim/Life’s Door introduced workshops for both patients and medical professionals that raise awareness about hope, resilience and compassion in a field that has frequently been associated with silence and darkness. Today, this unique concept of ‘spiritual care’ reaches every corner of Israel’s complex society.
