What the Dying Teach Us : Lessons on Living is a spiritual approach to health care that teaches the reader about value, hope, and faith through actual experiences of terminally ill persons. This unique approach to health care teaches the living how to deal with grief and the bereavement process through faith and prayer. Priests, pastors, chaplains, and psychotherapists will learn how to treat parishioners or patients with the values the dying leave behind, allowing part of their deceased loved one's belief and teachings to guide them through the grieving process. In the end, the reader will also become aware of his spiritual self while helping others heal and renew their soul. - Back cover
