In the course of caring for the ill or dying, health care professionals are sometimes the only ones available to provide spiritual comfort to their patients. In our modern pluralistic society, where patients could come from any number of religious traditions, it can often be difficult to find exactly the right words in these situations.

Every year, some two million parents in the US suffer the death of a son or daughter. The unnatural sequence of the child's preceding the parent in death creates a wrenching loss and overwhelming emotional and spiritual disorientation.

The Grieving Garden offers support, understanding, and, ultimately, comfort and hope from those who have sowed the same tears over the death of a child.

NA SUÉCIA, existe uma antiga tradição chamada döstädning – dö significa "morte", städning, "limpeza". O sentido é bastante literal: limpar, remover, se desfazer ou desapegar de objetos que, mesmo adorados, com a nossa morte vão se transformar em um fardo para amigos e entes queridos. Essa tarefa de eliminar pertences em vida – descrita como revigorante pelos escandinavos e como inusitada por pessoas de outras culturas – pode ser realizada a qualquer momento, em qualquer idade, porém sempre o mais cedo possível, antes que outros tenham que fazer isso por nós.

The night before her father dies, 18-year-old Jeannie Vanasco promises she will write a book for him. But this isn't the book she imagined.

After his funeral, Jeannie spends the next decade in escalating mania, in and out of hospitals - increasingly obsessed with the other Jeanne. Obsession turns to investigation as Jeannie hunts for clues into the mysterious circumstances of her death.

Like most of us, Mark Wakely had always put death in the too-hard basket. Around death he was painfully awkward, strangely self-conscious: death-shy. He was curiously distanced from his own parents' deaths. Thirty years later, he went on a journey to confront one of the most intensely personal yet universal experiences: our own mortality. With Mark as our guide, we are introduced to morticians and embalmers, rabbis and doctors, coffin makers and gravediggers.
