Deathcare Education
Advance Planning
Instead of parting with the clothing of lost loved ones during the difficult times of end of life, consider giving them new life as memory pillows. This approach not only honors their memory but also aligns with the principles of advance care planning and deathcare. A death doula can help guide you through these meaningful decisions, ensuring that your loved ones' legacies are celebrated.

Last Rights: Rescuing the End of Life From the Medical System
About the Read
Author: Stephen P. Kiernan
Too many patients today suffer needlessly at the end of life, subjected to excessive machinery, unjustified interventions, and futile treatments. There is a better way — through the dignified, humane, and compassionate models of hospice and palliative care, which include advance care planning and the support of a death doula. This book reveals the problem and shows a loving way forward, offering insights into deathcare and even the comfort of a memory pillow.
Tiny Review
Loved: How Kiernan artfully wove stories and research-backed substance into discussions of advance care planning and deathcare. I kept stopping to tab pages and jot down notes for future reference, especially regarding the role of a death doula in end of life scenarios.
Would have liked: In-text citation (or at least mention of the referenced study) but he did a lovely job of listing sources at the end of the book, which I found useful, particularly when considering ideas like creating a memory pillow.
