Dying: A Natural Passage
By Denys Cope, RN, BSN
An exceptional guidebook providing practical and insightful information about rarely addressed end-of-life issues.
Dying presents societal and relationship issues related to dying, fascinating details about the stages of dying, and hands-on caregiver support for those living with dying. It also addresses various types of death transition, from conscious dying to sudden death to assisted suicide. In the process, this poignant and popular manual explores these questions, among others:
-What best supports a peaceful death?
-How can I help with pain management?
-Is it time to call in hospice?
-If my loved one is not eating, will he starve to death?
-If my mother is talking to people I don't see in the room,
is she hallucinating?
