Fear of Dying

In Fear of Dying, author Neal Rechtman documents his wife's relatively stress-free acceptance of a terminal diagnosis (stage four pancreatic cancer).
Using Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's famous treatise On Death and Dying as a framework, he narrates his wife's calm navigation of the "five stages of grief" and details for the reader the reasoning she used to maintain her fearless perspective.
Whether you have a life-threatening illness yourself, are trying to come to terms with the (imminent) loss of a loved one, or simply wish to lift the black could of fear that defines death in our society, Fear of Dying can help you face the great unknown with less sense of dread, and perhaps guide you to your own level of acceptance.
