Histoire
You get ready to die the way you get ready for a trip. Start by realizing you don't know the way. Listen to a few travel guides. Study the language, look at maps, gather equipment. Let yourself imagine what it will be like. Pack your bags. This book is one of those travel guides - a guide to preparing for your own death and the deaths of people close to you. The fact of death is hard to believe. Sallie Tisdale explores our fears and all the ways death and talking about death make us uncomfortable - but she also explores its intimacies and joys.

Histoire
Dr. Jean Marmoreo spent her career keeping people alive. But when the Supreme Court of Canada gave the green light to Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) in 2016, she became one of a small group of doctors who chose to immediately train themselves in this new field. The Last Doctor recounts Marmoreo's crash course in MAiD and introduces a range of different and memorable patients, some aged, some suffering from degenerative conditions or with a terminal disease, some surrounded by supportive love, some quite alone, who ask her help to end their suffering with dignity and on their own terms.

Description
For listeners of Atul Gawande and Paul Kalanithi, a palliative care doctor's breathtaking stories from 30 years spent caring for the dying.
Modern medical technology is allowing us to live longer and fuller lives than ever before. And for the most part, that is good news. But with changes in the way we understand medicine come changes in the way we understand death. Once a familiar and gentle process, death has come to be something from which we shy away, preferring to fight it desperately than to accept its inevitability.
Palliative care has a long tradition in Britain, where Dr. Kathryn Mannix has practiced it for 30 years. In this book, she shares beautifully crafted stories from a lifetime of caring for the dying. With insightful meditations on life, death, and the space between them, With the End in Mind describes the possibility of meeting death gently, with forethought and preparation, and shows the unexpected beauty, dignity, and profound humanity of life coming to an end.

A calm voice amour the storm I find myself in.
8 weeks ago we received the news that my wonderful full of life 80 year old mom has stage 3b terminal lung cancer. Mom wants to live at home through to the end. My dad and I are committed to do so especially with covid. This book is wonderfully written and Kathryn shares her expertise in detail throughout. The stories are fascinating and I see a bit of our story in many. It made me cry, weep actually, but inspired me and gave me hope. So clearly the dialogue has given me the words to discuss the future and the process of dying with my brothers and my parents. Well so far mom. Dad isn’t there yet. The narrator is skilled I love the dialects from the across England and even France. The narrator is fantastic I felt like Kathryn is holding my hand through this. One of my key takeaways is that it is a team. I need to be open to having the proper team around us. I have been though the death of 3 people I loved dearly and we were never told these things even from the palliative doctors.
