Time to Talk about Dying
Jessica Kingsley Publishers (Verlag)
978-1-78592-805-5 (ISBN)
Presenting clergy and chaplains with unique therapeutic tools for helping senior adults enrich their later years, this book gives advice on how to strengthen relationships, find meaning in life and feel comfortable approaching life's final chapter.
It guides clergy and chaplains through how to effectively conduct "Soul Legacy" projects, in which older people reflect on what they want to leave behind for their loved ones and how they want to be remembered after they die. It enables older people to pay loved ones personal tributes and show them how important they are. By focusing on others rather than the self, it provides comfort for loved ones as well as the senior adult, prevents loneliness and negative feelings about ageing, and helps adults gradually become comfortable with the challenges of approaching the end of life.
Fred Grewe is a Hospice Chaplain at Providence Hospice in Medford, Oregon and an end-of-life care workshops leader. He holds a Doctor of Ministry degree from the Pacific School of Religion, Berkeley.
