Living with Uncertainty gives a broad perspective on the
complexities and challenges of the practice of end-of-life care, as
well as the perceived benefits and limitations of medical
intervention. Drawn from research and clinical and pastoral
experience, the book examines the feelings associated with the end
of life, highlighting the demands that people are faced with and
their consequences. It moves into the difficult area of people who
feel defeated by their illness and can or want to live no longer,
as well as the family, caregivers and professionals who surround
them. These perspectives have been built upon around a hundred
narratives of lived experience, combined with the wider clinical
and practical range of voices. A topical post-script Lessons from
Covid-19 captures the choices and challenges on a personal,
professional and systemic level which the pandemic acutely revealed
with a multiplicity of examples. This will be essential reading for
students and professionals in palliative and end-of-life care.
Families and friends will also benefit from this book as they try
to come to terms with the delicate but universal issues of death
and dying.
