Overview
āA common sense path to define what a āgoodā death looks likeā (USA TODAY), The Art of Dying Well is about living as well as possible for as long as possible and adapting successfully to change. Packed with extraordinarily helpful insights and inspiring true stories, award-winning journalist Katy Butler shows how to thrive in later life (even when coping with a chronic medical condition), how to get the best from our health system, and how to make your own āgood deathā more likely. Butler explains how to successfully age in place, why to pick a younger doctor and how to have an honest conversation with them, when not to call 911, and how to make your death a sacred rite of passage rather than a medical event. This handbook of preparationsāpractical, communal, physical, and spiritualāwill help you make the most of your remaining time, be it decades, years, or months.
Based on Butlerās experience caring for aging parents, and hundreds of interviews with people who have successfully navigated our fragmented health system and helped their loved ones have good deaths, The Art of Dying Well also draws on the expertise of national leaders in family medicine, palliative care, geriatrics, oncology, and hospice. This āempowering guide clearly outlines the steps necessary to prepare for a beautiful death without fearā (Shelf Awareness).
