Every day she tries to bring care and comfort to those reaching the end of their lives and to help make dying more bearable. Rachel's training was put to the test in 2017 when her GP father was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She learned that nothing - even the best palliative care - can sugar-coat the pain of losing someone you love. And yet, she argues, in a hospice there is more of what matters in life - more love, more strength, more kindness, more joy, more tenderness, more grace, more compassion - than you could ever imagine. For if there is a difference between people who know they are dying and the rest of us, it is simply this: that the terminally ill know their time is running out, while we live as though we have all the time in the world. 600 10 $a Clarke, Rachel $c (Physician) $0 (DLC)n 2020019876 650 0 $a Hospice care. $0 (DLC)sh 85062231 650 0 $a Palliative treatment. $0 (DLC)sh 90001135 650 0 $a Terminal care. $0 (DLC)sh 85134007 650 7 $a Health and Fitness. $2 eflch $0 (local)tlcaut1691948102869165469 650 7 $a Health and Wellbeing. $2 ukslc $0 (local)tlcaut1691948102884217729 941 $a 1 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611012706.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3048FDEA27B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
