For the newly diagnosed facing a life limiting illness. This booklet addresses issues of comfort, nutrition, and sleep as they relate to the palliative care patient. It provides guidance to help them live the best life they can within the confines of their body and disease.    


When a person receives the diagnosis of a life-threatening illness, life as they know it ceases. They find themselves in uncharted territory with no script to follow. Too often they withdraw from the world, as if they have already died. All activity becomes centered on their living with disease and its treatment. Fear and uncertainty replaces confidence and self identity. The joys of living are more or less put on hold while living as long as possible is pursued.  

A Time to Live honors whatever life prolonging choices are being made while at the same time suggesting we look at the gifts life offers each day.   

 

“Living" -  what does that word really mean? Everyone has a different answer. Start with the idea that you are alive right now. If you are reading this booklet and have  a life threatening illness then you will be alive next week and probably next month. So, what do you want to do or say? What is keeping you from doing or saying it? How can those obstacles be overcome? - Barbara Karnes, A Time To Live

 

Discover the gentle guidance and insights to reclaim joy, overcome obstacles, and make the most of each precious moment. Like all of Barbara's booklets, A Time to Live is written in large print and the information is conveyed in a simple, direct yet gentle manner. Secure your copy today.

So Glad I Found This Resource!

Thank you for your several useful, down-to-earth books! As a pastor, I have shared several of these books down through the years. When a person receives a diagnosis of serious illness, there are expectations of the future. Your books bring reality and comfort. Those receiving the book re loss of a family pet have received compliments. Thank you for providing these resources.

I loved this book

I am an Oncology nurse who works with patients with CNS tumors-brain mostly. CNS cancers do not have cures, sadly. I bought not only this book but 4 others, so I can help guide my patient's families before they are ready to enter Hospice care (and still have fears about palliative care). It has also helped me personally with the lives and deaths of my own family members. Barbara has written these books very well and with kindness.

Hi Catherine, it pleases me to hear you are giving my booklets to your patients. At the beginning of their journey A Time To Live gives guidance and then as they progress the other booklets fall into place. Blessings to you in the work you are doing. Barbara
