    Life is short-read this book

    My Mother passed away in March of this year. A friend let me borrow this book, because I had read The Checklist Manifesto by the same author and loved it. This book is now a must-read for my children. I have passed it on to my Father, and my sister, whose father-in-law is living with them. With up close stories of end of life scenerios and perspective as a doctor, Mr. Gawande explores how we face death, how we try to prolong it with medicine, often at the expense of quality of life, what aging looks like in differing cultures and times, and where families often get it wrong when looking for a place for their elderly parent.

  • A MUST READ

    This book was recommended by a friend, as my 85 year old mother is going through some very difficult times. Not only has her world distinctly changed, so it goes for myself and four other siblings. The information contained within this book is easy to comprehend and I found it very insightful on the subject at hand. The stories within the book are real, therefore making it easy to relate with my journey. I highly recommend to everyone, as the majority of us will eventually encounter the process of accepting and coping with one or more aging parents.

  • Everyone with aging family should read this book.

    Asks thoughtful questions and provides compelling anecdotes. Understand, no one has answers to the questions he raises, but they are necessary to consider. Well written, interestingly presented, easy to read.

  • Reading this book is like eating a huge Thanksgiving dinner. A lot to digest.

    I read this book and needed a copy of my own to re read, it is that good!!

  • Strange survey?

    Haven't really read it yet. It's a little early to have a survey about "content". I thought the survey was about the ease of purchasing the book.
