Death is the last chapter in everyone=92s life story, and
while we would rather not dwell on it, we=92re often hungry for insights
and information that will comfort us and calm our fears.
In Shining Moments: Finding Hope in Facing Death, Georgia Weithe
provides an intellectual rationale for the importance of coming to
terms with death, an emotional glimpse into what it is like to sit
vigil while someone we love is dying, and spiritual directions for how
to create an atmosphere of comfort and safety to support the dying
person and help them let go.
The book shines a positive light on death to help us accept its
presence in our lives. It offers readers the hopeful message that when
we have found the key to living with the knowledge of our own death,
the door to inner peace and the hope of fulfilling our true purpose on
earth is opened.
Shining Moments is a valuable resource for all who have an
intellectual curiosity about death, for friends and family members of
loved ones who are in the final stage of life, and for Hospice and
other end-of-life care professionals who assist them with their
journey.
