Your Death, Your Choice: The Future of Palliative Care dives in to explain the several topics under palliative care. It gives the reader information about death and dying and how one copes with it, how to educate others if you are involved in the palliative care world, and finally, how to help another person that may be going through some aspect of death and dying. This first edition will hopefully help many caregivers make the right choices so they may guide others toward a good death. It also will hopefully lay the groundwork for further editions to help people deal with this unique phase of their lives.
