An Serene Book for an Important Event
This is a very important book that prepares people to accept their own death and the death of someone they love. The language is elegant; the feelings heartfelt; and the sentiment remarkable. For those people facing their death, or for those in the process of losing someone, you will find this book extremely comforting.

A compassionate understanding of death.
My sisters and I read this book while our mother prepared to die. It helped me begin to understand emotional patterns of illness and some of the mysteries of death. After reading Intimate Death, I had the strength to stay by my mother's side.

I highly recommend this book
My mom has advanced cancer and is terminal. I was looking for something to help everyone in my family deal with it all. I was worried that some of the books I came across would be too depressing to give to my mom, but while of course I was sad alot while reading Intimate Death, it was also very uplifting and helpful. I'm really glad I read it *before* my mom dies.
