Synopsis
Everybody will one day face death and throughout their lives will have to deal with the death of loved ones. Yet very few of us prepare ourselves, mentally or practically. As a result, we are often ill-prepared for our own deaths or those of loved ones. Drawing on personal experiences, letters, stories and excerpts, this handbook provides a straightforward and pioneering approach to the anxieties of the dying and their loved ones. Prepared by the Natural Death Centre - an educational charity set up for those caring for the dying at home - this guide includes practical advice and suggestions including advice on caring for the dying at home, preparing for death, alternatives to euthenasia, cheap DIY funerals as well as sections on coming to terms with death.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Very slight shelf wear to edges of cover. Slight browning to edges of pages through age. How to care for someone dying at home. How to draw up a Living Will. How to prepare for dying. Alternatives to euthanasia. Personal accounts of brave and 'conscious' deaths. How to organize a funeral without using undertakers. A consumer's guide to the best undertakers, crematoria, cemetries and funeral suppliers. All of us have to cope with death and dying - our own, our parent's, a friend's, or even, tragically, a child's. Yet it is the last taboo - rarely prepared for, usuall ignored and mostly happening out of sight in hospitals and old people's homes. This handbook shows how to deal with and take back some family control over the process of death and dying. It includes deeply moving personal accounts of brave and 'conscious' deaths, practical advice on how to care for someone dying at home, a legal alternative to active euthanasia for the terminally ill, and advice on coming to terms with bereavement. From the spiritual and the mystical to the practical and the administrative, this book is an extraordinary and important book. At its heart is the belief that dignified dying at home - followed by a family designed funeral - can become usual rather than exceptional, and that death and dying need not be the acute trauma which they are for so many. 224 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
