Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospice, Grief, and Life Thereafter is a harsh subject matter, that is not always dealt with easily. Everyone of us will face death and grief at some point in our lives. Some of us might have a loved one going through the process of dying and might be experiencing hospice. This is written to help others understand there is hope, there are miracles out there and with true belief in God we can all survive. This book is written with poetry spread throughout the chapters which I believe brings a fresh perspective to this journey. My number one source of strength was and remains God. I live with a solid relationship with God and prayer does help.

More than 1.5 million Americans a year die in hospice care—nearly 44 percent of all deaths—and a vast industry has sprung up to meet the growing demand. Once viewed as a New Age indulgence, hospice is now a $14 billion business and one of the most successful segments in health care.

Changing the Way We Die is a vital resource for anyone who wants to be prepared to face life’s most challenging and universal event. You will learn: — Hospice use is soaring, yet most people come too late to get the full benefits. — With the age tsunami, it becomes even more critical for families and patients to choose end-of-life care wisely. — Hospice at its best is much more than a way to relieve the suffering of dying. It is a way to live.
