Acerca de esta escucha
Communication experts offer examples and expertise about end-of-life conversations to inspire, teach, and encourage the listener to have their own and to grow from them.
Death is one thing we cannot control. We will all face the death of a loved one. And many, if not most, people in our culture will be hesitant and unprepared to say goodbye.
The Good Goodbye is meant to help those who must say goodbye to a loved one who is dying. In it, listeners will discover how culture affects final conversations, and that often the last interactions may not consist of words but gestures and expressions. They will find examples from real people interviewed over many years, with themes that include love, everyday talk, taking care of business, identity messages, spiritual messages, and healing difficult relationships.
Listeners will learn about the positive outcomes of final conversations, both from the advice of children and the detailed stories of adults who were changed profoundly in their attitudes and life paths. They will also see that many people have experienced communication with their loved one after that loved one has passed. Finally, listeners will discover how others have overcome negativity to engage in the good goodbye, and how they can improve their own preparedness to have final conversations.
Anyone who faces the death of a loved one—and that will be all of us—can gain from listening to this book. We have found that hospice workers, nurses, caregivers, assisted-living personnel, spiritual advisors, and grief groups are especially interested. But anyone who is walking the path with someone close who is dying will seek this information and enjoy the inspiration.
The main message: Be there. Listen. Love. Be grateful for the opportunity to grow.
