On medicalization of life, death, and dying

2 comments

What would happen if we became a part of the natural world, if we saw both life and death together, if we took responsibility for our life in this time as human beings, expecting it to end at any time, and looked out from our front-facing eyes to others before us?

Live more fully? Die to all unnecessary exigencies of life? Live with DEATH on my shoulder? ~ ????

When the "loved one" has been abusive.
Most articles on caregiving refer to the "loved one", but of course, it is not always the case that there is a warm/respectful/positive relationship between the caregiver and the dying person. Sometimes the caregiver has experienced abuse or encountered very difficult situations for years in the marriage. I wonder about resources to help caregivers in these types of situations. Thanks.
