highly recommended
a powerful book
Although my husband recently passed away with the dreaded disease, Alzheimers, reading this book has helped me through the process of grieving. I learned about "
Final
Gifts
" through two women that were going to the same support group that I was attending. They knew that I was having a difficult time, accepted his death, etc. I wish that everyone could read this wonderful mind setting publication.
Recognizing and receiving these 'final' gifts is not to be missed
A friend gifted me with this book during the year my 46 year-old daughter was in home hospice care, her 16 year battle with breast cancer coming to its end. Strokes had affected her ability to make herself understood or to even feed herself. The authors have sensitively and lovingly shared stories of how to recognize and receive the
gifts
our loved ones still have to share - even in their
dying
. These gifts are precious and ought not to be missed.
As part of a caregiving ministry in my congregation, I have purchased the book to be part of our caregiver's resource library. I highly recommend it to all clergy, caregivers, and to family and friends of those who are dying.

A must have for everyone
This book had everything I needed to understand what my dad was going through as he slowly prepared to die. It made it all so understandable and much easier to accept. Not only is everything explained, it gives concrete examples from the author's experiences as Hospice nurses. Such an informative and comforting book to have...I have read it numerous times and find new things each time as the
dying
process progressed. I would recommend it to everyone.
The most important book you can read if you're losing a loved one
Send this book to anyone you know who is at the
final
stages of losing a loved one. No book is better written to help them cope with the
needs
of the
dying
, and to help them understand and communicate with their loved one. This is essential reading. Order a case of these books, so you'll always have one on hand to give out.

Help for caregivers and family
Another book I sent my sister... she read it cover to cover in one night. My mother has breast cancer in her bones... my sister has taken over the job of full time care giver. This has helped my sister in so many ways and she just sit with our grandmother till she passed and this helped the whole family the things my sister had read that helped all of us understand my grandmothers wishes and thoughts at the end. It gives you a whole other point of view. Thanks ladies for writing this book.
