All long-term illnesses, whatever their diagnosis, have much in common. The difficulties and challenges that come with illness, and the strategies to overcome them, are shared by most patients. Managing an illness effectively and tackling the difficulties it causes can greatly improve how you feel and your quality of life. This book identifies the challenges posed by illness and suggests a wide variety of ways in which you might meet them. Key to this is the idea of becoming expert in managing your own illness and learning how best to deal with it. The authors accept that you know more than them about how you experience it, so that rather than telling you what to do, they offer a tool box from which you may pick the strategies that best suit you. The two authors, one a person with a long-term illness and one a doctor, combine their expertise and experience to offer a practical and comprehensive guide along your own unique journey. If you have a long-term illness, or if you care for someone who does, then this is a book for you.

Have you ever wondered what specifically takes place if you, or someone you love, were to experience hospice care? Honestly, during an unthinkable crisis, wouldn’t it be a relief if your wants and your fears were among the top priorities being addressed? And wouldn’t you like to know that the attention includes both you and your loved ones? Imagine how comforting it would be to have the same nurse, nurse aide, social worker and others give you care for the entire time you or your loved one is on service. And after the crisis is over and all the sympathy calls have subsided, think about the reassuring comfort received from someone who stays in contact with you for over a year after the crisis is over. Author Rick Schneider reveals through his own eye-opening experiences and observations that when time appears to be limited, hospice care gives you the assistance to do what is most important to you. Simple Human Compassion will illustrate as nothing else can how touch, not technology, is what is needed at the end of life.
