Produktbeschreibung
In today's society, many people view death as something to ignore, to dismiss, and to avoid discussing. That was true for author CK Brashares. Even though she was by her father's bedside when he passed away, she didn't realize the challenges until her mother was diagnosed with cancer at age ninety-three. Advised against surgery and chemotherapy, medical professionals sent her mother home to live out her life and face her death. In A Reflective Journey of a Loved One's Passing, Brashares offers keen insight into death and dying as experienced through her mother's journey, one of the most challenging two-year periods of her life. She shares what she learned-from doctor visits to medical tests, hospice, arranging a funeral, and after passing, disposing of personal property and selling a home. She provides helpful information about living wills, grief counseling, and more. This memoir offers a look at what you might experience when faced with a loved one's imminent passing.
