This is an incredible book to read in a weekend. It's got amazing stories and insights into how we can balance our lives as we make some pretty tough decisions about "the end". It is definitely a book all caregivers should read as it gives us an understanding of what's important to those who will someday leave us. Personal Story: Mom wanted out of the nursing home. She was miserable and severely depressed. I read this book and got her out the next day.  She florished once we got her back to her home. I should have understood what her decisions meant to her, what she wanted and needed, and realized her life was not about my wants.
