Please support this fantastic resource. It would be a huge loss to the community if money cannot be found to keep more beds open

Spotted by my daughter today. I thought it was a great way to leave your opinions down on paper and have a giggle at the same time!

Something to think about. Lots of resources out there....

💜 "Just as we nest for birth, we can also nest for death."

Death is not just an ending - it is a transition, and how we prepare for it matters. In her book, "Death Nesting", Death Doula Anne-Marie Keppel shares a heart-centred approach to caring for the dying; offering practical, emotional, and spiritual tools to support this sacred time.

What you’ll find inside:
✨ Gentle, hands-on techniques to comfort the dying
✨ Rituals and mindfulness practices for end-of-life care
✨ Ways to support caregivers and create a meaningful transition
✨ Guidance on talking to children about death

Whether you are a Death Doula, caregiver, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of end-of-life care, Death Nesting is a powerful resource for approaching death with compassion, intention, and love.

📖 Available through Simon & Schuster: Death Nesting by Anne-Marie Keppel

You don't need to buy this type of book but something like this to plan ahead and give your loved one peace of mind might be helpful and cover off things you may not have thought about.
