Excellent resource. Tremendous help to our family after my mother was diagnosed with terminal ovarian cancer and throughout her transition. Has the best form for end-of-life medical decisions (including the specificity necessary for effective DNR conditions) that I've ever run across, too.

I wish this book had been around before my parents died. I also found it very helpful for me in planning/creating documents I need to have. And yesterday's death of Natasha Richardson reinforced the need to have end-of-life documents ready.

A good reference book, but I wouldn't have picked this to read if I didn't have to for a class.

A good, informative book that stirs up a lot of feelings. I have to be in the mood to read it.

Everyone should probably read this book. It's not
something only for seniors!
