United StatesThis booklet was so helpful to me as my husband’s caregiver. I purchased extra copies to give to our grown children. I wasn’t sure my husband was ready to read this booklet, but he found it in our bedroom. He did read it and shared with me that it was very helpful to him! He was so glad I had purchased it. I’m so thankful .

Hi Marilyn, taking care of someone at end of life is different than caring for someone who is going to get better. Pain and comfort management certainly is different. Being an End of Life Doula gives you the opportunity to educate, support and guide others during this challenging time. My blessings to you. Barbara
