Riassunto

If you can listen, and if the patient or family can talk, you can write a book and create a legacy for your patients and the people who care about them. Studies have shown that a majority of people who are terminally ill have the added suffering of being concerned about being a burden on others. When reviewing life stories , the burden converts to interactions and a sense of pride in accomplishments and sometimes resolution to old wounds. In this book you will learn effective and innovative strategies for going from note taking to a rough draft, basic questions that prompt storytelling, publishing the finished product as a free E-book or printing a full color cover, 40 page paperback book for less than $2
