Reviews for Now and at the Hour of Our Death
9 ratings1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The author accompanied health workers dealing with pallitative care and these are some of the patients' and their families' stories. I thought this would be a lot sadder than it was - this is mainly about the lives these people have lived, not necessarily about their deaths. What a privilege to get to meet people in such hard times and get a direct line to their hearts. Difficult work indeed, but surely rewarding.
