Another book to be published by the author will give the reader a glimpse of what it's like on the"deathbed" - what to expect when your time comes and what you can do to help manage your own symptoms while lying in bed appearing helpless to everyone else.
FINAL NOTE:
Some people prepare for death and when that time comes they are ready; however,
most of us feel
when death comes it's forced
upon us. We
act as if it is foreign and we have never heard of it. It's easier not to talk about it. But we must talk. Preparation
brings comfort. Ignoring something that's a
part of
life doesn't make it go away

Brenda, as I read your book, I realized
how helpful it is. You have made the world aware of what to expect and what to
do at a difficult time in their lives. This will certainly help me prepare for
my own death.”

“As a Senior Citizen that has more
yesterdays than I do tomorrows, I was very impressed with CNA's Guide to
Caring For a Dying Patient. It gave me insight and hope that I will be
blessed enough to have such a compassionate “friend” to help me and my family
make that ultimate transition an easy one.”

“God bless you, Brenda! After reading
your book and knowing how you care for your patients, I feel my family and I
will have that special person to help us prepare for the end of life on this
earth. Thank you.”

“Brenda,
as I’ve studied your book and the upcoming PowerPoint presentation on this
material, I keep thinking of more and more ways for people to benefit from
understanding these concepts. The CNAs will be at a great advantage. Nurses and
doctors will be jealous! Nursing home directors will want to make these
available to the families of the residents that live there. Funeral directors
will want to make these available to those who prepay their funeral expenses.
You have learned so much from your experiences, and now you’re sharing your
knowledge in as succinct a way as possible with those that can benefit from it
the most! I’m thankful to be able to learn all these things, and I’m going to
make sure all my senior friends have access to this knowledge, too. To God be
the glory!”
