Death can be our greatest teacher. This book is a manual for living, at any stage in life.
This is the book I wish I had already readThis is a book we all should read - must read. It should be dropped with the milk bottles on the doorstep in the morning; be found wrapped in the daily newspaper; be given as a birth present to every infant, and set as a GCSE text. Clear, concise, practical and kind. For both the person facing - and those helping - in this moment of life that we will all confront. Beautiful work. - --Greg Wise, actor. A tiny gem crammed with wisdom and kindness. ---Kathryn Mannix, author of With the End in Mind
