The second part of her book is about what we as individuals and as a society must do to improve things for those who are dying. I particularly enjoyed the guided tour, conducted from a wheelchair, of Baby Boomer 'Haven'."br -- Dr. Roger Woodruff, Director of Palliative Care, International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care, Austin Health, Melbourne, Australiabrbr "The writing is eloquent and powerful, and the stories are instructive and lasting. After finishing this book, I wanted to do more for other individuals who are dying, for as Ms. Parker so clearly imparts, the dying teach us so much about living well."br -- Dr. Peter A. Lichtenberg, Director, Institute of Gerontology, Wayne State University, Detroit, Michiganbrbr "This book is filled with poetry, stories, wisdom and common sense that can help boomers, students, caregivers and policy makers understand their own aging and realize that our society can--and should--make important changes that can ensure safe, dignified, individualized care at the end of our lives."br -- Alice Hedt, Executive Director, National Citizens Coalition for Nursing Home Reformbrbr Learn more at bwww.BecomingDeadRight.com/bbrbr From the "Aging With Grace" Series at Loving Healing Press (www.LovingHealing.com)br MED042000 Medical : Terminal Carebr FAM017000 Family & Relationships : Eldercarebr SOC036000 Social Science : Death & Dyingbr
