Reading Resource

We look forward to a conversation in June with U.K. palliative physician, Dr. Kathryn Mannix, author, speaker, and death-literacy advocate. Dr. Mannix will be our guide in exploring “ordinary dying” and the gift of open, genuine conversation about what dying is in the modern palliative world. Become acquainted with Kathryn Mannix through her two books, “With the End in Mind,” and “Listen.” Watch for more information in the May newsletter.

“This outstanding book should be required reading for each and every grief provider. Dr. Wolfelt’s philosophy and practice of caregiving helps us understand we don’t need to be joined at the head with the mourner, we need to be joined at the heart.” — Grief Counselor
