In June 2000 Peter Houghton, a counselor in palliative care, was
weeks from death due to cardiomyopathy. He had made his
preparations and had said most of his good-byes. Then he was
offered the chance to participate in a clinical trial. Six months
later he was not only still alive, but planning a long distance
walk for charity and writing this book about his experiences. With
humor and honesty, his story chronicles the uneven path back from
the brink of death. Combining knowledge drawn from his counseling
work with other dying people and his unique personal experience, he
describes what dying really feels like and explains the physical
processes it involves. He also raises profound questions about
medical trials and palliative care, and especially about our
attitudes to life and death, and the way we approach death.
