A good reader for any student and general reader

Great book for everyone. Everyone has to deal with death, unless they die extremely young. M. Lattanzi-Licht covers many difficult senarios of death and dying. On p.179 Lattanze-Licht says,"This reality is intensified when the child is caring for a dying parent and feels confounded by the magnitude of the tasks". Get the book and read more!!!

necessary read

Great book, and a necessary read- especially for those of us living in death-fearing cultures. Having been a hospice volunteer for 13 years, I've seen a dramatic difference in end-of-life care when patients, their families, and their medical caregivers are educated on the hospice philosophy. It's a beautiful stage of life, the dying process, when handled with the respect every other stage of life deserves.

Great book

I found this book educational and easy to read. It provides a very clear picture of hospice and palliative care to the layperson. I wish that more physicians and their staff would read books like this so they could better prepare patients and their families for hospice care. I also wish I had read it before my mother died because I would have known better questions to ask our hospice and perhaps would have received better care for mom, myself and the rest of the family.
