Caring for the Dying explores the extraordinary experience of caring for a lovedone who is dying, looking at the practicalities of everyday and long-term care. Using true, poignant stories gleaned from his many years of experience in the medical profession, Michael Barbato broadens the reader's understanding of death and what it means to the many patients, family and friends he has cared for in his professional and personal life. The author approaches this confronting, sensitive subject with a unique, thoughtful understanding of the carer and of the cared for in this enlightening, insightful book.
