If you or a loved one is coping with a terminal illness my love and support go out to you.  This is some of the hardest work in the world-so much to do, people to call, questions to get answered and so little energy  to do it all.

Please go to http://www.blogtalkradio.com/AuntieArtichoke  for the 15 minute show I did this morning on this subject.  Perhaps it will give you insights and hope.

My advice to you as a Hospice volunteer for gathering Final Gifts, life stories, is to treasure the moments of living while coping with the losses that are ahead.  Live fully as best you can until you are no longer in this plane of existence, but have continued your journey.

This can be a time of great personal growth and satisfaction.  Remember the 5 most important things from my friend Dr. Ira Byock's book Dying Well;

1. Forgive me
2. I forgive you
3. Thank you
4. I love you
5. Goodby

I will be doing an intensive 4 week teleclass on Grieving starting on Thursday November 6.  All sessions will be recorded so you will be able to replay it later should you have to miss that one.

This is designed to get you or your loved ones through the holidays.  We will provide support, love and guidance to strengthen and sustain you.  It will cost you $147.00 and return to you priceless peace and support.

If you are interested, please write to me at Judy@ArtichokePress.com and I will send you the information.

Peace be with you,
