After working in hospitals, clinics, and hospice for more than twenty years, Jeanne Van Bronkhorst has seen first-hand the value of asking about dreams at the end of life. This book explores the important role that dreams can play for those who are in an end-of-life process, those providing support, and loved ones whose lives are touched by the transition. Stories detail the benefits of common dreams experienced at the end of life. There are also chapters on how you can encourage attention to and recall of dreams for others and yourself.
