À propos de cet audio
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.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Histoire
Paige Layle was normal. She lived in the countryside with her mom, dad, and brother Graham. She went to school, hung out with friends, and all the while everything seemed so much harder than it needed to be. A break in routine threw off the whole day. If her teacher couldn't answer “why” in class, she dissolved into tears, unable to articulate her own confusion or explain her lack of control.

Histoire
A tender, powerful, and achievable path to the everyday resiliency we all need to navigate the uncertainty in our lives. An inspiring new voice in resiliency, Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe believes that our modern conception of resiliency as “fighting” or being “tougher” is misguided. Learning happens when we are able to trust and feel safe; fear and shame are barriers, not facilitators, for authentic growth, acceptance, and change. Dr. Robyne maps out a kinder approach to taking on the challenges of life and developing authentic self-alignment and balance.

Histoire
How you age is up to you. And it’s easy to take charge. From the renowned integrative doctor Frank Lipman comes a radically simple program to reverse the symptoms we reflexively call “normal aging,” including feeling achy, stiff, sluggish, weak, and vulnerable to chronic illness. This improves not only our life span but, more importantly, our health span—our quality of life and how we feel.

Histoire
How often have you heard, “Don’t let your emotions get the best of you”? But what if instead of ignoring our feelings, we noticed them, named them, and let God use them to draw us closer to Himself and others? Many of us need to unlearn damaging messages about our emotions. We’ve been taught, for example, that emotions are untrustworthy, when, in fact, God can use them to help us see where we need His healing.

Here acclaimed author James Hollis guides you through 21 areas for self-inquiry and growth - such as how to exorcise the ghosts of your past, when to choose meaning over happiness, how to construct a mature spirituality, and how to seize permission to be who you really are.

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.

A courageous must read bringing Hope
Although a very emotional read, I appreciated being educated and sitting with my feelings before having to live one or more of these scenarios out.
Beautifully and compassionately written of multiple peoples powerful and humorous stories

magnificent
As a health care professional, as a mother, a wife, a human, I have found this book incredible in reducing my own fears about dying while providing insight for caring about individuals in their later stage of life.
