Book Blurb"Hospice is a program for patients who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness and for their caregivers. Hospice never hastens or prolongs death. The goal of hospice care is to improve the quality of a person's life by controlling their symptoms and keeping them as active in life as possible. In hindsight, families have told me that they would have known about hospice sooner. It would have eased the fear and burden they face.

Mary Hill was spiritual as a teenager and fascinated with the concept of death and dying. She read many books on the subject, but still had fear about her own death. She shares her unique and spiritual experiences as a Registered Nurse and Hospice Case Manager. A close relationship with each patient showed her the divine grace that accompanied the dying process as she assisted them to transition to the afterlife. Several of her patients kept their promise to appear to her after they passed. This was evidence that life, or consciousness, continued after our physical body was dropped. Mary describes her journey watching her mothers decline over the years and experienced the family dynamics that she knew so well. Her mother appeared with messages of love and life lessons for facing many of her fears after her transition. More hospice stories occurred as she continued as a per diem nurse and performed Reiki and Shamanic healing work. Mary shares her views and personal experience on the controversial subject of medical cannabis in treating pain and anxiety. Further discussion continues with her thoughts about Alternative Medicine versus Western Medicine.

The Last Ten Days addresses the concerns of loved ones and caregivers, providing them not only with information but also acknowledging the sadness and frustration, the heartache and bittersweet memories experienced during this painful time. To these readers, the book says, “You are not alone.” The Last Ten Days: Academia, Dementia, and the Choice to Die is a heartrending memoir of love, scholarship, dignity, courage, and the choices one is forced to make when given the devastating diagnosis of a terminal illness. Spanning sixty years, this extraordinary book recounts the love story of Martha Risberg Brosio and her husband, Richard Brosio, Ph.D., a brilliant scholar and college professor whose communication skills dazzled all with whom he came in contact. Teenage sweethearts who went their separate ways after high school, Martha and Richard reconnected twenty-six years later over a friendly dinner that sparked into passionate love. They married in 1983, enjoying a vibrant life. Then tragedy struck. In late 2013, Richard was diagnosed with Primary Progressive Aphasia, a type of dementia similar to Alzheimer’s that affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. The disease impacted Richard’s ability to communicate. Eventually, he would lose his verbal and processing skills. There was no cure. Determined to have a dignified death at the time and in the manner of his own choosing, Richard hastened his death two years after his diagnosis by voluntarily stopping eating and drinking, seeking only palliative and hospice care until the end. Reminiscent of Still Alice, The Notebook, Tuesdays with Morrie, and When Breath Becomes Air, The Last Ten Days grabs the heartstrings and gives a mighty tug.
