The Hospice Choice: In Pursuit of a Peaceful Death

I found this book educational and easy to read. It provides a very clear picture of hospice and palliative care to the layperson. I wish that more physicians and their staff would read books like this so they could better prepare patients and their families for hospice care. I also wish I had read it before my mother died because I would have known better questions to ask our hospice and perhaps would have received better care for mom, myself and the rest of the family.

Great book, and a necessary readespecially for those of us living in death-fearing cultures. Having been a hospice volunteer for 13 years, I've seen a dramatic difference in end-of-life care when patients, their families, and their medical caregivers are educated on the hospice philosophy. It's a beautiful stage of life, the dying process, when handled with the respect every other stage of life deserves.

Great book for everyone. Everyone has to deal with death, unless they die extremely young. M. Lattanzi-Licht covers many difficult senarios of death and dying. On p.179 Lattanze-Licht says,"This reality is intensified when the child is caring for a dying parent and feels confounded by the magnitude of the tasks". Get the book and read more!!!
