Summary

“Beautiful, poignant, pitch perfect and accessible . . . a road-map for clinicians, patients, family members, and caregivers”—BJ Miller, MD, author of A Beginner’s Guide to the End: Practical Advice for Living Life and Facing DeathThis groundbreaking book encourages us to face our fears and engage in an open, honest dialog about death.  Here, longtime “death doula” Henry Fersko-Weiss helps the dying discover meaning in their lives, express that meaning in powerful and beautiful legacies, and plan for their final days with dignity.The doula approach to death emphasizes thoughtful planning for how the last days should look, sound, and feel, and encourages the use of touch, guided imagery, and ritual during the dying process. It also calls for around-the-clock vigil care, which provides emotional and spiritual support for both the dying person and their loved ones.

    As a result of vaccines and various other “modern” medical topics, autism has become more common than ever. Autism has become more broadly known or understood, at least to some degree. In the last 10 years, research has discovered high-function autism, which was never before believed to be autism. In the Dealing with Autism series, you will learn about the “root” problem autistics deal with, how to spot it, and how to teach your loved one how to overcome it. As a high-function autistic with nearly 20 years in education, I was able to create a lesson plan, which I originally designed for myself. Due to the exceptional outcome of following my own program, people no longer believe I am autistic. Dealing with Autism series is written in everyday language, so anyone can understand and follow. By the entire support group following this program, the loved one will reach new heights. Follow the entire series to see the most improvement in your loved one. This has two parts. One is for the family and support group, while the other is for the person with autism which is communicated in the "black and white" picture that autistics understand.
