Facing death results in more fear and anxiety than any other human
experience. Though much has been done to address the physical pain
suffered by those with a terminal illness, Western medicine has
been slow to understand and alleviate the psychological and
spiritual distress that comes with the knowledge of death. In "What
Dying People Want, " Dr. David Kuhl begins to bridge that gap by
addressing end-of-life realities--practical and emotional--through
his own experiences as a doctor and through the words and
experiences of people who knew that they were dying.
Dr. Kuhl presents ways of finding new life in the process of
dying, understanding the inner reality of living with a terminal
illness, and addressing the fear of pain, as well as pain itself.
He also offers concrete guidance on how to enhance doctor/patient
relationships and hold family meetings, and provides an
introduction to the process of life review.
It is possible to find meaning and peace in the face of death.
"What Dying People Want" "helps us learn to view the knowledge of
death as a gift, not a curse." ("New Times")
