So what is this “Elephant In The Room” all about? It’s an English metaphorical idiom for a significant problem or controversial issue which is obviously present, but ignored or avoided as a subject for discussion. Therefore people in the room who pretend the elephant is not there, have chosen to avoid dealing with the looming issue...kind of like when someone in the family has a life-limiting illness but no one knows how to approach the subject or want to talk about it. How do we deal with such conversations? Or do we avoid, & hope that all will be forgotten?

Meet these 10 magnificent elephant masterpiece, a Hospis Malaysia’s “SPEAK UP! THERE’S AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM” initiative. From 1st - 14th October 2018 @ The Esplanade KLCC, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 🇲🇾

Hospis Malaysia’s “SPEAK UP! THERE’S AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM” initiative hopes to encourage conversations that matter for patients diagnosed with life-limiting illnesses. By bringing up issues, unfinished business and hopes with our loved ones & healthcare providers, speaking up can be the beginning of a journey of a life well-lived despite the illness.
🐘
So I hope for those who are reading this will join me to support and share this cause:
💙 To help spread awareness about the need to acknowledge the gap in Malaysia’s healthcare for people diagnosed with life-limiting illnesses, AND
💙 To advocate for better & more accessible palliative care services for all when the need arises.
🐘
Because really, who knows? Perhaps someday, we may require palliative care too.
