About this listen

Caring for a loved one as they transition from life to death is a journey unlike any other. It is one that I never could have fully prepared for, yet it has been the most profound experience of my life.

At the time my mom asked me to move in with her, I had no idea what those three years would entail, let alone the six months after her heart attack, which brought us to the end of her life. In those final months, I witnessed firsthand what it means to die with dignity and how love, patience, and humility can guide a family through one of the most difficult experiences anyone can face.

This book is about that journey, one that transformed me in ways I could never have imagined. It made me a better person, more aware of my own vulnerabilities, and more in touch with the fragility of life. It’s about the deep love between a parent and a child, the fear and courage it takes to care for someone during their final days, and the hard lessons I learned about death, family, and personal strength.

Above all, it’s about maintaining dignity—not only for the person dying but for those of us who are left behind, navigating the complicated emotions and responsibilities that come with caring for someone in their last moments.

It was in that moment that I realized we had entered the final chapter of her life. It wasn’t an easy decision for her, or for me. It was met with resistance from our family, many of whom were not ready to accept what Hospice represented: that the end was near. But for me, it was the beginning of a process that would help me come to terms with her eventual passing and prepare myself for the challenges ahead.

This book does two things. It shares with the listener what my experience was and lessons learned as well as gives an in-depth look at what hospice is and how it helped me and my family get through the journey. This isn't the last word on hospice, but it is one son's walk through that experience.
