"We are quick to talk about the miracle of life when an infant enters this world. I believe the miracle of death carries the same weight and mystery." -- Theresa Evans
As an ICU nurse, Theresa Evans witnessed death and dying on a regular basis. She considered it a privilege and an honor to be with someone when they died.And then her own mother chose a date with death.So begins the extraordinary account of a mother and her three daughters preparing for death while coping with their own grief and impending loss.
As Theresa spends the final three months of her mother's life putting her mom's prolific flower garden to rest for winter, the garden becomes a living metaphor, mirroring the intrinsic cycles and timing of both life and death. Botany provides the lens while Theresa's years as a yoga teacher and clinical somatic educator anchor the emotional and ethical complexities that arise while helping a mother settle her affairs.
Through deeply personal journal entries, Choosing to Die is a masterclass on intentionally and mindfully supporting a loved one who chooses medical assistance in dying. This vivid firsthand experience is useful for caregivers, death doulas, and other professionals and volunteers involved in hospice care and palliative care. Most of all, Choosing to Die is a gift for anyone seeking clarity and compassion in the midst of one of life's most confounding decisions.
"When Mom wakes from her sleep, we bathe her. Like holy water washing her earthly film away we let layers of life puddle around her pale, fragile, age-marked body..."| Shipping | This item ships to |
