Format Book:  Summary:  "Experts in end-of-life care tell us that we should talk about death and dying with relatives and friends, but how do we get such conversations off the ground in a society that historically has avoided the topic? This book provides one example of such a conversation. The coauthors take up challenging questions about pain, caregiving, grief, and what comes after death. Their unlikely collaboration is itself connected to death: the murders of two of Irene's closest friends and Steve's support in perpetuating memories of those friends' lives and not just their violent ends."-- URL:  Cover image No. of Holds:  0   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Marion Public Library Top Floor 306.9 GOR Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
