Hi wonderful community, I'm wondering if any of you out there have recommendations for quality books on the subjects of terminal illness, death and grieving? I know there are plenty out there...but wondering if any gems have stood out? also books a about spirituality. wishing all love and kindness on this difficult journey. xx

Hi Tatsoi I have not read her books for some time, but in the past I found Elisabeth Kubler Ross extremely helpful. Her foundation website offers good advice http://www.ekrfoundation.org/ http://www.booktopia.com.au/search.ep?productType=917504&keywords=elisabeth+kubler+ross lists 19 of her books. 'On Death and Dying' was one of note. Warm hugs of strength and comfort, Pamela 🙂

Elizabeth Kubler Ross had a great recipe on grieving. I think it has helped so many people understand a little better what is going on for them. 🙂
