This is also the story of a family of five, a daughter and her husband and three children ranging in age from 17 to 30, who each cared for their mother and grandmother on a daily basis and write about the transformation and gifts they received in the process. This is a book for anyone who has ever wondered what it is actually like to die and how they can make the experience their greatest adventure of all. It will inspire anyone who is caring for a loved one, or thinks they might do so one day. It will help anyone who wants to overcome the fear of death, so that they might live with more happiness and joy."This book is moving, uplifting, and ennobling. While the topic is a daunting one, it's handled with such sensitivity and insight - and, yes, love - that you are forced to reexamine your fears about death and dying. and dispense with them."- John Gray, Executive Producer, Creator, Director: CBS-TV "The Ghost Whisperer"
