Book Description

January 2004
Dying Beautifully -- Making the Most of the Time You Have Left Together is the interactive guide for the dying, their loved ones, and their caregivers.

This workbook is a weaving of stories, perspectives, practical tools, and exercises that take the reader from the time of a terminal diagnosis to after the cemetery service. Along the way, readers become empowered to take an active role in how the dying process will progress. They will learn how to replace the fear and anxiety of dying with gratitude and intimacy.

Review

This book is a valuable resource for professionals to share with their patients and a must have for every hospice. -- Barbara Rubel, Author of But I Didn't Say Goodbye

About the Author

Dave Karpowicz isn't a doctor. He isn't even in the medical profession. He is just a guy who, when faced with the opportunity to help his dying friend (Eddie) talk about dying, panicked and said words that he and Eddie both knew were lies-- words like "Eddie, you will be fine. You will be going home in a few days."

While Eddie was much too gracious to push the point, his face said it all, "Here was one more guy that was going to make me go through this alone."

Dave wished he had a guide, something that could at least get him started - something that had the right words.

Fifteen years later Dave wrote that guide with the hopes of helping someone else honor their Eddie. He titled it Dying Beautifully -- Making the Most of the Time You Have Left Together.
