This book has provided so much comfort for myself and the people that I have purchased copies for. With so many of us losing ones we love, it is so comforting to hear such heartwarming and tearful stories from a caregiver. I applaud the book and highly recommend it to anyone grieving.

How to help the dying exit with dignity

This book is filled with examples of people who learned to die with dignity through the help of a compassionate Hospice caregiver. It's a look at what transpires as life ebbs away, and it offers encouragement to caregivers via prayers, meditations and "one step" ideas to help get through the day.

A Must for Hospice Workers!

For oncology workers, professional or otherwise, and for all hospice workers, including volunteers,this little book is exceedingly valuable. The book is a collection of anecdotal stories of the dying process of a variety of individuals. The stories are written with great sensitivity, wisdom, and gentle humor. At the close of each chapter is an inspiring prayer, relevant to the situation just described. The authors have written a very personal account of their experiences with the dying. This book < I believe, will lead the reader into a different way of looking at death-a way both practical and realistic, as well as highly spiritual.

Joyce captured my husband's story with sensitivity.

My husband and I are one of the chapters in this inspirational book. I met Joyce at the Hospice care facility and we have become great friends as she walked with me through my husband's death and my widowhood. Her sincere understanding of the depth of our love and the devestation of our loss has been truly a gift that came from our sorrow. I highly recommend this book to anyone caring for someone facing death or to those who believe that life does go on.
