Description
Conversations about death dont have to be morbid.
Following the Positive Death Movement and public education such as Death Caf?s, many of us yearn to speak more openly about dying and death in ways that are more natural and direct.
21 Days to Die was written in that spirit, in the hope that all Canadians will come to recognize the signs of physical death and the sequence to facilitate necessary conversations and better timely decision-making. The book addresses both the medical and advanced care planning aspects, but also aspects such as psycho-social needs, grief work, rites of passage and much more.
Written by a social worker and lay Buddhist Chaplain, 21 Days to Die inspires fearlessness in the face of seeing what doesnt want to be seen. Under these circumstances the mindfulness practices of being fully present in the moment and remembering the impermanence of all living things are both universal and calming.
Dying people deserve loved ones who are prepared to take the journey with them to their final
breaths with their eyes wide open.
