pickRead for my “Death Becomes Us” bookclub.
What a useful book! I will get a physical copy to use the workbook part at the end.
If you want help deciding what should happen to your body after you die, this is a great reference. It discusses lots of options and how to let your family or caregivers know your wishes.
I think it is a kindness to let your loved ones know, so they won‘t have to guess or make hard decisions in a time of crisis.
pickInspiring book about aspects of life that involve deep reflection!
#25Alive! Day 16: #FaveBk24 or my #Top24Of2024 - how about you? Here‘s my post: https://wp.me/pDlzr-qU9
@CSeydel I started this on audio today and can already tell that it will affect me deeply. As a former hospice nurse, I‘m very aware of unnecessary and often more painful medical interventions that hurt rather than help. There is such a thing as a “good” death, one that allows quality of life in those last days/months rather than quantity. #ALSpine25 @monalyisha
#smallbusinesssaturday #bookhaul 3 stores visited (1 totally new to me) and a multitude of books added to my tbr because I sadly can‘t buy all the books I‘m interested. Here are some that came home with me today. 🤩
pickI found this edition while scanning the shelves in an indie bookstore in Seattle. It was a quick read with a lot of familiar information and ideas—but EKR is always worth reading. I honestly can‘t get enough of books on these topics! The world needs more of them. Death Care and Death Education can be so different, if we allow it to be. Shown: snowberries at Snoqualmie Falls in WA.
#DaysDevotedTo Day 7: there are soul-stirring real-life #FamilyStories in this journalistic memoir of sorts by Portuguese author Susana Moreira Marques. This book will stay with me for awhile. Review is forthcoming.
#WickedWhispers Day 21: #Death - paired with broken cheesecake, lemon daiquiri and espresso martini - all mocktails, and utterly delicious.
#WickedWhispers Day 13: This title sounds particularly #Chilling in a moribund sort of way. Made sure I brought female Portuguese novelists with me as I travel to Lisbon in a few hours‘ time. Made sure I have posts now for the entire duration of my five day travel. 🧳✈️🛫🇵🇹
