Comments on Living with Dying
|
| 'A moving insight into a woman's acceptance
of death, while trying to make the most of life.' |

Barbara Weathered |

'Living With Dying is a poignant account of each day's
journey along this path for one brave woman with an incurable
disease known as motor neurone disease.'
'A core message of this book for all with a terminal disease
is to "live the present" and to seek inner peace
and self understanding.'
'Readers...will be reminded of the deep power of kindness.'
'The book is "special" because it is rare for
a victim of terminal illness to have the gift, courage and
strength to write, the insight to perceive contained lessons
and truths of general relevance, and the courage and generosity
to tell them in a way which can be very serious help to all.'
'Each reader of this book will carry from it some new
wisdom and inspiration.'

'Compelling reading.'
'Life heightened, values and beliefs probed, insight gained,
as the author comes to grips with the onset of a debilitating
terminal illness which leaves her intellect intact.'

Joan Priest |
| 'Insight into living when doomed to die... [T]he
author...wrote the book primarily for sufferers of terminal
illnesses and their carers.' |
