Description
Please join us for a screening of Her Last Project. This film tells the extraordinary story of Dr. Shelly Sarwal, a physician from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Diagnosed with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), an incurable disease, Shelly chose to undergo the recently legalized Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) procedure and become an organ donor. As the first person in Nova Scotia to undergo this complicated medical journey, she dedicated the short time she had left on this earth to educate health professionals and the general public about being in control of your death and creating a meaningful legacy through organ donation.
After the film, the Saskatchewan Health Authority Organ and Tissue Donation Program will be hosting a panel discussion with clinical experts in the area to talk about the film and it's impact.
