Artist Wendy MacNaughton shares wisdom from hospice caregivers: how to be, when to help, what to say – with full-colour drawings throughout. As artist-in-residence at the Zen Hospice Project Guest House in San Francisco, Wendy MacNaughton witnessed firsthand how difficult it is to know what to do when we’re sharing final moments with a loved one. In this tenderly illustrated guide to saying goodbye, MacNaughton shows how to make sure those moments are meaningful. Using a framework of ‘the five things’ taught to her by a professional caregiver, ‘How to Say Goodbye’ provides a model for having conversations of love, respect, and closure: with the words ‘I forgive you’, ‘Please forgive me’, ‘Thank you’, ‘I love you’, and ‘Goodbye’, each oriented toward finding mutual peace and understanding when it matters most.
