We're so excited to see Dr. Sarah Boston on stage

We're so excited to see Dr. Sarah Boston on stage at You'll Die Laughing in support of Colchester East Hants Hospice Society on May 7 at The Marigold!

Along with being a stand up comedian, Sarah is a veterinary surgical oncologist, author, actor, podcaster and dog mom (not necessarily in that order). Her journey through cancer (both having it and treating it) became her bestselling memoir, LUCKY DOG: HOW BEING A VETERINARIAN SAVED MY LIFE.

She is fascinated by the intersection of medicine and comedy and the people who are in that space, so she started a podcast called Comedicine where she talks to healthcare professionals who do comedy.

Don't miss Sarah, along with Todd Graham, at You'll Die Laughing. Tickets are available now at The Marigold box office or online at https://www.marigoldcentre.ca/calendar/2026/youll-die-laughing.

Grief is a natural emotional and physical reaction

If you're interested in participating, please reach out to info@cehhospice.org or 902-893-3265 for more information.

The successful applicant will have a post secondary education in Social Work or other relevant discipline and/or equivalent work experience, and a minimum of two years clinical experience with working specifically in a family centred care model is required.
