Stephen Jenkinson is featured in The Sun Magazine with an interview on death and dying. He reminds us not to hide from death, not to hide the fact that we are dying because we need to let those we love know what death looks like. Our society has a disease of "death fear" (my term) that paralyzes us. Jenkinson says it much better than I do. Thanks to his website Orphan Wisdom for this link:

You might want to pick up The Sun, or spend a little time on Jenkinson's website or otherwise expand your horizons on this important topic.
And here's an amazing video that may help you see end of life in a different way, too. It's a young doctor doing a rap song...don't be afraid of the music... it's a good way to reach the younger generation. And an eye opener for any age!
