<p>Today in ever increasing numbers, terminally ill people are choosing to spend their last days at home, in the warmth of familiar surroundings rather than in the cold, impersonal sterility of a hospital or nursing home. With skyrocketing hospital and nursing home costs, sometimes there is no choice. If you, or a loved one is faced with this situation, here is an information source to support and assist your efforts and knowledge to ease the path of the terminally ill to a peaceful conclusion. In "Coming Home" Deborah Duda answers many poignant questions with sensitivity, compassion, and knowledge born of her first-hand experience. Detailed diagrams support an active understanding of the specific techniques described. In clear, easy to understand language, she outlines how to make the final weeks as comfortable and meaningful as possible, encouraging the dying person to live fully, until the moment of death.</p>

<p>If you ask yourself “When if the last time I felt joyful?” and the answer is not today, Lighten Up could open a new door in your life. Lighten Up is not a book for sissies. It takes courage to acknowledge the sadness and losses in our lives, let them go, and reclaim our joy. According to author, Deborah Duda, suffering is the least recognized, most widespread, most pernicious addiction of our time. Part memoir, expose, and guide book, Lighten Up shares practical options and exercises for changing the ideas and behaviors that prevent us from living more lightheartedly. The book focuses on re-owning the often deeply hidden energy in us all -joy. Because the greatest gift we can give ourselves, our families, our communities, and our world, is to be a profoundly contented person who feels a kinship with all of life, lightening up is the major challenge of a lifetime. Duda is also author of the award-winning, groundbreaking guide book, Coming Home, a Practical and Compassionate Guide to Caring for a Dying Loved One, first published in 1981, now it its fourth revised and updated edition.</p>
