Customer Reviews

It warmed the heart to read about such dedication and love.

After reading the book twice I found that I was profoundly moved by the caring of one person for another. It was a learning experience to view the situations that arose between the medical world and the patient. Patricia Fentons delicate yet forceful treatment of her Aunt Allie was a lesson we all need to learn for if we are ever faced with the same situation we need to address it in a like manner, with humor and love. Once I started reading I couldn't put the book down, I looked forward to the next adventure with much anticipation and was never disappointed. This is a must book for anyone who is faced with the caring of a terminally ill person, be it a loved one, a friend or a stranger. It is an inspiration for all of us.

This book is a life-changing experience.

Not long after I read this book, my landlady began to fail and then died. The process was exactly as the author described it and I knew exactly what to do to comfort her and her family in order to make my landlady's transition a memorable experience for all. Besides useful information about death and dying, it's a hilarious romp through the author's life wih the most unforgettable characters. This book is an absolute must-read for anyone with a loved one who is ill or dying or simply because you want a good story.
