Henry Fersko-Weiss

Henry Fersko-Weiss is a pioneering figure in end-of-life care and a co-founder of the International End of Life Doula Association (INELDA). His work is rooted in the belief that the dying process can be met with dignity and peace, focusing on providing emotional, spiritual, and practical support to the dying and their families. Through an approach adapted from birth doula practices, Fersko-Weiss helps individuals prepare for the inevitable, walks with them through their final days, and supports them in early grief. His writing explores how a meaningful death can be achieved through a holistic approach to end-of-life support.
