Final Gifts

Understanding The Special Awareness, Needs And Communications Of The Dying

BY MAGGIE CALLANAN AND PATRICIA KELLEY

Brief Description:
"Impressive insights into the experience of dying, offered by two hospice nurses with a gift for listening. The `final gifts' of the title are the comfort and enlightenment offered by the dying to those attending them, and in return, the peace and reassurance offered to the dying by those who hear their needs. .[The authors] offer practical advice not only to involved family members but also to professional caregivers on how to recognize, understand, and respond to a dying person's messages. No lugubriousness or false cheerfulness here, but acute observations and astute advice on a difficult topic." - Kirkus Reviews
