Résumé

In What Dying People Want internationally renowned palliative care physician Dr. David Kuhl offers a profound and practical book about living with a terminal illness. Facing death, and the fear and anxiety that arise from it, is part of the human experience. Though much has been done to address the physical pain suffered by those with a terminal illness, western medicine has been slow to understand and alleviate the psychological and spiritual distress that comes with the knowledge of death.
In What Dying People Want, Dr. Kuhl begins to bridge that gap. Dr. Kuhl shows us that we can learn lessons in living from those who are dying, and that it is possible to find meaning and peace in the face of death. What Dying People Want includes:. Ways to enhance the doctor/patient relationship. Guidance on how to hold a family meeting. An introduction to the process of life review. Direction in listening and in speaking your truth"This book started with a research question: What is the daily experience of living with a terminal illness? How does that experience affect your sense of self, your relationship with others, and your understanding of the spiritual? Many of those I interviewed asked me to share what they had given me with others who would follow-those with a terminal illness as well as their friends and family members who would care for them and about them.
They asked specifically that I write a book for a general audience, and not only for my colleagues in the medical profession. This is the book that grew out of that research." -Dr. David Kuhl
