Death is but a dream : finding hope and meaning at life's end
Kerr, Christopher, M.D.2022
Book
Christopher Kerr is a hospice doctor. All of his patients die. Yet he has tended thousands of patients who, in the face of death, speak of love, meaning, and grace. They reveal that there is hope beyond cure as they transition to focus on personal meaning. In this book, Kerr shares his patients' stories and his own research pointing to death as not purely the end of life, but as a final passage of humanity and transcendence. Drawing on interviews with over 1200 patients and more than a decade of quantified data, Dr Kerr reveals why pre-death dreams and visions are remarkable events that bring comfort and exemplify human resilience.
