"The Good Death" felt important for me to read because a family member I love has dementia and is nearing the end of her life. The book made me feel more empowered and determined that I can help facilitate a good death for her when that time comes. This is a gentle, reassuring book that offers practical ways to deal with caregiver guilt, sadness and anxiety. What a gift and resource for someone who is struggling. I am grateful I found and read this and will be giving to other caregivers who need. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. Pub Date: March 18, 2025.
