Dying 101:: A Candid Conversation on Terminal Illness - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

The update of the bestselling guide. Written in a unique and reader-friendly dialog style, Dying 101: honestly addresses a number of heretofore unspoken subjects in a provocative, powerful, yet compassionate, way. Readers will find themselves caught up in a clear and fascinating conversation based on care-receivers’ and -givers’ experiences points of view. The information was received by the authors as facilitators, counselors, and patients over many years from therapy/support groups and individuals with terminal illness, their signifiant others, families, and friends. The book has been written to pass along this information so that others might fully live their lives without needlessly paying the high cost others have already paid.Dyin 101: provides insight on how to help live life to it’s fullest for those living with a long-term, life-threatening or terminal Illness (such as Cancer, Lupus, AIDS, “Lou Gehrig’s' diseasese, Cystic Fibrosis, Chronic Hepatitis, M. S., Parkinson’, and other chronic, degenerative diseases). Appropriate for caregiver and carereceiver, the book covers a spectrum of issues — emotional, healthcare, physicians, family, suicide, palliative care, hospice, legal, and final arrangements to mention a few. It is particularly reader-friendly, even to the point of having an easy chair graphic to symbolize suggested text resting spots after what may be difficult passages.“Even after 40 years of doing this work, I found Dying 101: to be an incredibly powerful, moving, and informative text...The authors are practical and spiritual guides for this most scared of all journeys. They dared to speak the unspeakable....”Stuart Bloom, Ph.D.“It will serve the purpose of empowering patients to ask better questions...The ‘Hidden Agendas’ information was great. Something I haven’t seen explained this clearly before...”Mathew Jansen, M.D.“You opened my eyes...to organize these affairs...and who really is important in my life and who I want present at my death. I appreciate your being straightforward and honest to your readers.” Judy Anselmo, R.N."Dying 101: is a tool that will help individuals and society transform the Dying process. You are giving detailed explanations of the truths and exposing the shallowness of so many myths...”Mona El-Kurd, L.C.S.W."It makes the often-avoided topic accessible...no punches-pulled dialog shows people how they can ‘own’ the process and take action...It’s something of a script/rehearsal notes for what everyone will face. For that reason alone, it’s a marvelous gift.” Donald MIller, Esq.
