Book recommendation -- I can't praise this book enough!

[BlessedMommy]

A couple of months before my dfil was diagnosed with terminal cancer, he and my dmil were given a copy of the book Living Fully in the Shadow of Death by Susan Zonnebelt-Smeenge and Robert C. DeVries. They didn't know it then, but that book would become an invaluable resource for them and the rest of our family.
From the back cover:
"Life will always give way to death. And while is about Living Fully in the Shadow of Death is about death, it's really just as much about life: living life fully by being prepared for its completion. Every aspect of practical, emotional and spiritual preparation for the end of the journey is included. Each subject is treated with sensitivity and supported by daily mediations that soothe the heart. If you've lost someone you love, are struggling alongside someone who is dying, or are facing death yourself, this life-affirming book will change the way your think about death."

Thank you. I'm going to see if I can find it at the libary. If not, I'll ask them to bring it in inter-libary loan.
