What was it like the first time a nurse witnessed death? How do nurses cope with death when it becomes almost routine? What lessons can we learn from their experiences? Twenty-five nurses—from hospitals, private practices, and in home health care—tell about their experiences with death. Hear from people new to the field as well as those who have been in nursing for decades about how they deal with grief, the controversies about end-of-life decisions, the challenges of caring for people as they die, and the harrowing experience of telling their family members. Edited and introduced by a registered nurse, the book is a resource for both nurses and anyone who wants to better understands death and dying.
Everyone who is born is someday going to die. Some of us will die peacefully in our sleep, some will die in accidents, and some as the result of diseases, cancer or AIDS. Because we do not usually know when we are going to die, most of us are frightened of death. We do not want to talk about it, do not want to face it, and we run from it as long as we can. And some of us die a lonely death--in a hospital, surrounded by strangers and white sheets, while family and loved ones are kept out of the room at the final moment. Anya Foos-Graber believes that death, like birth, should be a shining, light filled, conscious moment. Death is not a disease. It is the most natural passage we will make since birth. Looking at death before the time comes is like learning about natural childbirth before having a baby. Just as women are choosing to be conscious participants in the birth process, Foos-Graber feels that all of us should be conscious as well of our eventual death--that we should prepare for it the way the Tibetan Buddhists and American Indians used to do. The author calls this process of conscious preparation and practice deathing. The book presents two teaching stories, illustrating both a conscious death and an unconscious one. The second half of the book is a step-by-step manual, containing complete instruction and simple exercises--such as breathing, visualization, and the all important, "6th technique," or your chosen "Name and form of God" to which you direct your attention in life and the death transition. You can use the formless LIGHT itself as referent, an absence of any belief structure. A support person rather like the father's presence in natural childbirth can assist in the event of coma, or accident death. Other books have been written about grief, about wills, about taking care of your affairs. This is a book about taking care of yourself, and how to be helpful to someone you care for. Deathing has two aims: to make sure that the dying are comfortable and comforted as they die, and to help all of us prepare for the greatest adventure we will face since birth.
A week ago, the doctor told Bella she had a miscarriage. "It's all your fault! You have no wolf! You're born to be a jinx, you killed my child!” Her husband David blamed her. A week later, she learned that her sister Lanny was pregnant with David's child. "Divorce David and I'll let you have the cripple in exchange." That cripple is Lanny's ex-husband, Edward. However, her down-and-out new husband seemed to be hiding a huge secret from her... May the bad beginning have a good ending? *** *** Two months ago, Edward smelled the sweetest scent on his secretary, Lanny. On his wedding day with Lanny, Edward met Bella, his sister-in-law. It was when Edward recognized he had made a mistake. Bella was his true mate. And he found out that Lanny had been having an illicit relationship with Bella's husband David. But a gold-digger like Lanny would not easily let him go. Therefore, he faked an accident and disguised himself as a cripple to make Lanny disgust him and throw him to Bella. He and Bella fall in love, but could love tolerate lies?
It is 44 BC. The streets of Rome are booming with activities, merrymaking, and revelries. The common citizens are rejoicing the triumphant return of their valiant Caesar. Caesar is returning after defeating Pompey’s sons, a decisive, monumental victory. The people are ecstatic and jubilant. They are so intoxicated in the celebration that they disregard their chores and engage in decorating Caesar’s statues all along the city. They garland his busts, they sing his praises, they are exhausting all means of expressing their admiration and regard for the charming and benevolent warrior. His victory in Spain meant more spoils, more money, more resources, and that meant Rome’s prosperity. Their merrymaking was not unfounded or unreasonable. But among the hullabaloo of the reveling commoners, two noble-dressed men seem to dislike all the commotion. They seem to be at unease, their furrows deepened, and their expression livid. When they could no longer stand the sight of honoring the most powerful man in Rome- the man who was just like them, the man who was physically crippled with sporadic bouts of epileptic fits, the man who was one among them but has now risen to such heights that he was beyond their reach- they split and castigate the commoners for the delinquency for such a frivolous purpose as to watch Caesar’s victory parade. Caesar had risen to such heights that his own senate was intimidated by the influence, power, and authority he wielded. They try to disperse the thronging crowd and remind them that Caesar’s victory was not a war won against an enemy but a fellow Roman, a Roman General who served in the Roman Army when Rome was helmed by the Dictator and Consul Sulla. Julius Caesar, the controversial Roman Emperor, the captivating speaker, the brave general, the benevolent dictator, the man who was the high priest of an extravagant cult, had been held a captive by notorious pirates, who seduced the enigmatic Egyptian princess Cleopatra, the man who had the audacity to seduce the wives of his political rivals, a rebel with a cause who was condemned by his own senate and finally was brutally stabbed to death by his own senators. The story of Julius Caesar is an extraordinary tale of resilience, struggle for survival, greed for power, betrayal, debauchery, and unbelievable chutzpah. The riveting tale of Caesar’s assassination on the fateful ides of March is both agonizing and heart-wrenching.

In this moving and compassionate classic—now updated with new material from the authors—hospice nurses Maggie Callanan and Patricia Kelley share their intimate experiences with patients at the end of life, drawn from more than twenty years’ experience tending the terminally ill. Through their stories we come to appreciate the near-miraculous ways in which the dying communicate their needs, reveal their feelings, and even choreograph their own final moments; we also discover the gifts—of wisdom, faith, and love—that the dying leave for the living to share. Filled with practical advice on responding to the requests of the dying and helping them prepare emotionally and spiritually for death, Final Gifts shows how we can help the dying person live fully to the very end.
A melancholy drama based within self-destruction and the eradication of all that was love, or at least what one thought was love. Stories, prose and, philosophy shared though that of emotion and memories. No names, no names of places only words that will invoke tears and soul tearing. ""With my last breath I will scream your name""
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The award-winning book that inspired an Apple Original series from Apple TV+ • A landmark investigation of patient deaths at a New Orleans hospital ravaged by Hurricane Katrina—and the suspenseful portrayal of the quest for truth and justice—from a Pulitzer Prize–winning physician and reporter “An amazing tale, as inexorable as a Greek tragedy and as gripping as a whodunit.”—Dallas Morning News After Hurricane Katrina struck and power failed, amid rising floodwaters and heat, exhausted staff at Memorial Medical Center designated certain patients last for rescue.

Five Days at Memorial, the culmination of six years of reporting by Pulitzer Prize winner Sheri Fink, unspools the mystery, bringing us inside a hospital fighting for its life and into the most charged questions in health care: which patients should be prioritized, and can health care professionals ever be excused for hastening death? Transforming our understanding of human nature in crisis, Five Days at Memorial exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals how ill-prepared we are for large-scale disasters—and how we can do better.
