Editorial Reviews

From Scientific American

This book is truly a humanistic tour de force. It is a classic, and should be read not only by those who must interact with a dying loved one, but by each of us as we confront our own mortality, and the meaning of a life well lived.

From The New Yorker

This book provides incisive insights into the hospice process, as only a nurse with the extensive experience of Carolyn Jaffe could express it. . . I am pleased to recommend the reading of this compassionate and enlightening description of hospice, as seen through the eyes of possibly the most important participant in the process-the hospice nurse.

5.0 out of 5 stars Experiencing Hospice..., January 16, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: All Kinds of Love: Experiencing Hospice (Death, Value and Meaning) (Paperback)
This book was written by a nurse and is composed in a case study style format. It is however, a compilation of stories of people who go through the dying process with the help of hospice helpers, nurses, aides, doctors, and family. Every story was very touching and revealing of the feelings, hopes, attitudes and experiences of the patient and helpers. If you are facing the loss of a loved one, wanting to learn more about hospice, or have some other reason...this book will warm your heart and help you face dying as it has helped me. Highly recommended!
