A treasure.
Dr Mannix successfully navigates the complexity of the responses of the human spirit in the inevitable period before one leaves this existence. The content is explored with grace, sensitivity and great understanding. Compulsory reading for anyone in the medical field and certainly important for those who are not. A treasure.

precious book
made me appreciate life and the life of those I love. I loved it. We do need to have the end in mind as we tend to forget the constant opportunity of living

Incredibly helpful
My palliated sister asked our family to read this book, to help us understand her state of mind, priorities and road ahead.
Thanks to this book I will be able to enjoy our remaining time together a lot more, and I'll probably be less annoying to her, with incorrect assumptions and pointless fears.
