Jim Miller consulted with U.S. and Canadian professionals working full-time with the dying to create this honest, practical, affirming book. Each chapter is straightforward and specific: Assert your right to make your own decisions. Tell your story. Dare to hope. The tone is supportive throughout, empowering the dying person to live fully until they die. This artistically-designed book includes many quotations from famous people to illustrate each guideline, plus drawings from nature.
