    About this ebook

    This essential guide for carers, be they professional or friends and relations, provides guidance around a range of concerns associated with end of life. The book tackles this difficult subject in a practical and caring way, showing how appropriate arrangements can be made to ensure the dying person's wishes about death and post-death are carried out. From the practical point of view, the book covers making a Will, making an Advance Directive, donating body tissues and organs, and giving directions for one's own funeral or life celebration. From an emotional point of view the book discusses grief, including anticipatory grief, coping with grief and the importance of grieving
