Description
The Art of Dying Well: A Practical Guide to a Good End of Life This thoughtful guide offers a common sense approach to living as well as possible for as long as possible, and adapting to change. Packed with helpful insights and inspiring true stories, Katy Butler shares practical advice on how to thrive in later life, navigate the healthcare system, and make the most of your remaining time. Butler draws on her experience caring for aging parents, as well as hundreds of interviews with people who have successfully navigated the healthcare system, to provide a comprehensive and empowering guide. With expert input from national leaders in family medicine, palliative care, geriatrics, oncology, and hospice, this handbook outlines the steps necessary to prepare for a beautiful death without fear. By following this guide, you can take control of your end-of-life care and make your death a sacred rite of passage, rather than a medical event.
