A celebration of a life, a story of a death, but most importantly
an exploration of grief and loss relevant to all those in a
position to make that experience more bearable. This book is
essential reading for anyone working or preparing to work with
young adults and others facing terminal illness, and their
families. It is written by a bereaved mother of a 25 year-old son
treated unsuccessfully for cancer. Heartbreakingly honest, Nina
draws on relevant theory, research and narrative texts as well as
personal reflections. She considers what might have made the
hideous journey through treatment, dying and bereavement easier to
bear. This is a moving and memorable story for all of us, but there
are also learning points throughout for medics and medical policy
makers specifically and the health and social care professions more
generally. Students and experienced nurses, doctors, counsellors,
clerics and others will benefit from deepening their understanding
in order to work more effectively with people facing the
unthinkable.
