An anthology of articles addressing the the common medical questions that families face at the end of life, and offering insights into what the spirit needs at such times.
This book offers practical advice about Jewish traditions and customs for families facing difficult choices at the end of life. Physicians, scholars and experienced chaplains write chapters that provide medical information and apply Jewish moral perspectives to the many decisions that individuals, professionals and families must make as death approaches. The 224-page guide covers such topics as technologies used in end-stage medical interventions, documents and advance conversations that can aid the family later, managing key relationships with professionals, challenges accompanying diagnosis, approaches to pain and suffering, hospice and end-of-life care, when to end a life, and death and mourning.

Behoref Hayamim: In the Winter of Life: A Values-Based Jewish Guide for Decision-Making at the End of Life
What a provacative, insightful, well researched book!! This book was required reading for a U. C. Berkeley Religions of the World class my son was enrolled in. We had many a heated discussion about this class and this book when he was a student there, I being in the throes of a fundamentalist religion and he the budding intellectual. It educated me in ways I will forever be indebted to the author for. (It only took me two years to actually be brave enough to pick it up and read it as nice little Mormon girls don't question.) To quote an often repeated phrase of my youth: "When the Prophet speaks the thinking has been done."
Thank you Joseph Deleiden!
This book should be required reading for high school and beyond.
