Gone from My Sight: The Dying Experience

Gone From My Sight: A Gentle Guide to Understanding the Dying Process

One of the most difficult parts of facing death is the uncertainty surrounding it. What will dying be like? What changes might occur? How can family members recognize and understand what they are seeing?

Gone From My Sight offers a simple, compassionate, and direct explanation of the dying process associated with advanced illness. Rather than relying on dramatic portrayals of death, this brief and accessible booklet helps readers understand that dying can involve a gradual process of physical and emotional changes.

A Compassionate Resource for End-of-Life Understanding

Designed to reduce fear and uncertainty, Gone From My Sight provides accessible information for people who are approaching the end of life as well as those caring for or supporting someone who is dying.
