Eternally, from struggles to serenity, from a jaded life to joy and jubilation in heaven, I pray that this book will invoke the tough conversations regarding being prepared financially for final arrangements and discussing end-of-life wishes. Both living wills and materialistic wills are important.

Planning certainly helps the survivors cope better, and this book will help you to see the importance of preparation. I sincerely hope that my work will become a cornerstone for learning across this nation.

This book was not easy to compile because it evoked many repressed memories that I thought was better to forget, but God said different. God said to share my knowledge with all who has an ear and will hear.

I pray that the case studies will be demonstrative that not every journey is similar but very unique. In my experience, no two people have ever died alike.

This book is spiritually based in that I reference biblical Scriptures because this is how I have managed my hospice goals and journey. God has divinely provided me with the knowledge to survive twenty-one years of hospice.

He has also provided me the courage and wisdom to author this book! If I can increase the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of different cultures, races, and human beings, then I truly believe that God will be pleased with my obedience to fulfill his desires for this particular purpose of my life. 2.
