Each meeting, we VEOLI members discuss a chapter from a pertinent book. Below is a graphic capture of Chapter 4 from "Awake at the Bedside". The chapter is by Elisabeth Kubler Ross entitled "Unfinished Business and How You Know What You Know". She emphasizes three things in the chapter: trusting your own intuition; helping a dying person address unfinished business; and the importance of dealing with your own unfinished business. During our discussion VEOLI members were particularly interested in how Kubler Ross encourages caregivers to offer dying people a piece of paper and crayons to draw their illness and/or their unfinished business. She shows how that drawing will help guide you in support and treatment. - Susan MacLeod
