Customer Reviews

Bringing Comfort and Peace in a Time of Uncertainty.

In a time where I feel so uncertain of everything around me after an immense loss, this book has brought me a comfort I was looking for that I didn’t think I would find. I’ve been looking at social media for experiences and I’m mostly getting brief quotes. As nice as it is, they feel like fleeting comfort. Hadley’s book brought a more rooted sense of comfort with experiencing loss and handling the end of life. I’m also one who’s honestly terrified of the concept of death and what follows, this book really helped. I’m still scared of it but it doesn’t feel quite so dreadful. If you’ve lost someone important to you, and want something to bring you some stability into your now shaken world, let this book bring that to you.

Get your tissues

Love, love this book! Such great stores on life and death and how they can both be such beautiful things! This is a quick easy ready. I really hope Hadley writes more books similar to this one.

Emotionally riveting <3

I loved this book and I found myself in tears at the end of nearly every chapter. End of life can often be scary or taboo to discuss, this book helps to soften some of those barriers and enables the reader to have a look into the process. Hadley, write another book... I'm sure there has been many more stories.

An eye opening perspective on death in hospice

Hadley recounts her experiences with her hospice patients and the affects their lives and deaths had on her life, perspective, and faith. Her honesty and story telling gives the reader an inside look at the end of life that is not usually openly discussed.

Truly beautiful

Very well written. Knowing your patients are at peace is a calming feeling. Hadley tells her stories so beautifully.
