Summary "'Saying Goodbye to Someone You Love' consists of moving narratives about end of life and grief. These personal histories are complemented by practical guidelines for those caring for their loved ones through the last stages of life. For those who are grieving, the true-to-life-stories demonstrate how others have navigated through the tidal wave of emotions and reactions that characterize the grief process. For health care professionals and those who are offering support to grievers, 'Saying Goodbye to Someone You Love' provides a new perspective on the challenges of caring for the dying and living with grief" --Cover, p. 4
