      <image:caption>I had a deep calling and confirmation to Death work only a few months after my sister, Sacha Charles was tragically murdered by intimate partner violence in October 2025. Her death was not the only one that shook me to the core. Bearing witness to the decline of my Father, Clayton Charles after a fatal cancer prognosis and admittance to Sunnybrook Hospital 7 years ago on August 6th 2019 made me perplexed and saddened about dying with dignity.</image:caption>
