Many of us have experienced the loss of a loved one - family, partner, friend, and dealing with that loss can be so difficult. This book offers insight into death, and may offer some comfort for those looking for answers after the death of someone close to them. I don't want to give any spoilers, but I found the book well-written, and an interesting read. Having experienced quite a few losses of my own, I also found this comforting to a degree. I recommend this for anyone spiritual who is looking for some answers or comfort when it comes to death.
I've had an interest in being a death doula for some time now. So, when I saw this book, I knew I had to read it. Debra's background in the world of finance made this book even more intriguing to me. How did she go from that world to one as a death doula?
The author's account of her experiences working in hospice seemed align with everything I've ever known about such a facility. Her description of how death effects people differently is very accurate. She uniquely describes the physical stages we all go through as we get ready to pass on. All of which are things I've witnessed personally will sitting vigil at the bedside of loved ones as they died.
Debra's work as a Medium and Psychic, for me at least, only enhanced the book. The things she has witnessed while sitting with actively dying patients has been the same thing millions have been said to experience as they've died or died and come back. I found this part of the book fascinating. I appreciated hearing her experience as not only a death doula, but as a person who has tremendous gifts. This book did leave me with a sense of comfort about what comes next. Also, I smiled every time one of her patients stated that our loved ones that have passed are always with us in spirit. I know this to be true, so it was nice to read it in black and white.
