Why read it?
1 author picked Facing Death as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this book because it conveys that life-limiting disease need not be a grim, bleak, hopeless experience of physical and emotional pain. People are alive until they are not. Dr. Stuart, an internist specializing in end-of-life care, merges patients’ stories and humane wisdom to show how facing death can be emotionally and spiritually restorative.
When patients are supported by clinicians armored with love rather than technology, who ardently believe in healing the human spirit even when healing the body is impossible, the last days can be some of the best days.
From Leonard's list on enhancing kindness and dignity in healthcare.
