Review Kath has taken the theory and principles of palliative care, her experience as an excellent bedside nurse, and her compassion for both those receiving and giving care, and merged them into these amazing books. Kath presents complex issues in practical and clear ways. Through stories and illustrations she reminds us that care includes the person, the family, and ourselves. She shares all the necessary tools, knowledge, and skills, while emphasizing that it is our presence and human connection with people that create truly meaningful moments for all those who are involved.
