One of our goals when creating GraveSite was to make it a space for humor when reporting on death and the end of life. In our last HellFireside Chat, Becky Robison explains why humor has its place, and we hope this helps you feel seen, too. 🖤

Reduce, reuse, recycle…your local graveyard? Reusing graves is common in other countries, and with the increasing popularity of green burial, it could be even easier to do. What do you think?

I wrote tomorrow's newsletter about the death penalty MONTHS ago, but now that our government is planning to execute someone live on air, it's unfortunately more topical than I intended it to be. Sign up: deadparentswhatnow.com/newsletter

EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM WILL SOMEDAY BE DEAD *reads* like a light and airy novel, but the whole time I felt so sad for our narrator, Gilda, whose preoccupation with death leads to anxiety, depression, and very nearly worse... 🧵👇

#deathpositive #books

In the center of a lime green background is the cover of Emily Austin's novel EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM WILL SOMEDAY BE DEAD, featuring an illustration of a woman's torso in a yellow t-shirt and jeans, a light blue bunny cradled in her arms. Surrounding the cover, black text read: Epitaph - Fiction about dying. Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead by Emily Austin. deadparentswhatnow.com

Banned book highlight: "Tuck Everlasting" by Natalie Babbitt. 🌿

Often challenged for themes of death, this classic reflects a core truth of doula care: mortality gives life meaning, and death is a natural cycle—not something to fear or censor.

#BannedBooksWeek #DeathDoula #DeathPositive

Front cover of Tuck Everlasting: The Graphic Novel. The top text reads "NATALIE BABBITT'S TUCK EVERLASTING" in dark serif font, with "THE GRAPHIC NOVEL" centered beneath it. The watercolor illustration displays a warm sunset sky with a low sun over a lake. Tall pine trees frame the scene, with a cozy log cabin showing glowing yellow windows on the right bank. In the distance, two figures sit in a small blue rowboat on the water. The bottom text reads "ADAPTED AND ILLUSTRATED BY K. WOODMAN-MAYNARD".Front cover of the novel Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt. The author's name is printed in large brown text across the top, above the book title in outlined serif letters. On the left is a circular emblem reading "CELEBRATING 50 YEARS - FOREWORD by Gabrielle Zevin". The lower half features a sepia-toned watercolor scene of a small red cabin surrounded by pine trees on the shore of a lake, with two dark silhouette figures in a rowboat on the water reflecting the red house.  Image 2: Tuck Everla

It also allows us to plan with intention, cherish chosen family, and live fully right now.

As death doulas, our priority is to ensure that each dying person's story and identity are fully witnessed. 🤍 2/2

See, Gen X? Someone remembered you exist! And you remembered that one day you WON'T exist!

Atop a lime green background with a black, squiggly grid, pink and blue text with black highlight reads: According to a recent survey, the generation most comfortable discussing their own deaths is Gen-X. The words "Gen-X" are atop a very 80s-inspired green, blue, and pink triangle.

Our first GraveDigest is out! and with death news from elsewhere.

Did you know that, on Sept. 12, Illinois became the first Midwest state to allow medically assisted death? And more New Yorkers now die from summer heat than winter cold.
