For most of human history, dying was something people witnessed, understood, and supported at home. Today, many of us reach the end of life without ever having seen it. In this talk from End Well 2025, Dr. Kathryn Mannix explores how advances in medicine - while lifesaving - have also shaped a widespread misunderstanding of dying. When the only stories we hear are the hardest ones, it distorts what we expect. Through vivid examples and reflections from her decades in palliative care, she makes a case for something simple and urgent: we need to reclaim the stories of ordinary dying. Because storytelling is how we make sense of what we live through, and how we help others do the same.
