英文简介:
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Passionate advocate for end-of-life care and TikTok star Hadley Vlahos shares moving stories of joy, wisdom, and redemption from her patients’ final moments in this “brilliant” (Zibby Owens, Good Morning America) memoir.
“This extraordinary book helps dispel fear around death and dying–revealing it to be a natural part of our soul’s evolution.
“–Laura Lynne Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of Signs and The Light Between Us Talking about death and dying is considered taboo in polite company, and even in the medical field.
Our ideas about dying are confusing at best: Will our memories flash before our eyes? Regrets consume our thoughts? Does a bright light appear at the end of a tunnel? For most people, it will be a slower process, one eased with preparedness, good humor, and a bit of faith.
At the forefront of changing attitudes around palliative care is hospice nurse Hadley Vlahos, who shows that end-of-life care can teach us just as much about how to live as it does about how we die.
Vlahos was raised in a strict religious household, but began questioning her beliefs in high school after the sudden death of a friend.
When she got pregnant at nineteen, she was shunned by her community and enrolled herself in nursing school to be able to support herself and her baby.
But nursing soon became more than a job: when she focused on palliative care and hospice work, it became a calling.
In The In-Between, Vlahos recounts the most impactful experiences she’s had with the people she’s worked with–from the woman who never once questioned her faith until she was close to death, to the older man seeing visions of his late daughter, to the young patient who laments that she spent too much of her short life worrying about what others thought of her–while also sharing her own fascinating journey.
Written with profound insight, humility, and respect, The In-Between is a heartrending memoir that shows how caring for others can transform a life while also offering wisdom and comfort for those dealing with loss and providing inspiration for how to live now.
中文简介:
《纽约时报》畅销书 * 临终关怀的热情倡导者、TikTok 明星哈德利·维拉霍斯 (Hadley Vlahos) 在这本“精彩”(齐比·欧文斯 (Zibby Owens)、早安美国) 回忆录中分享了患者生命最后时刻的欢乐、智慧和救赎的感人故事。
“这本非凡的书有助于消除对死亡和临终的恐惧——揭示它是我们灵魂进化的自然组成部分。
”——劳拉·林恩·杰克逊,《纽约时报》畅销书《迹象和我们之间的光明》的作者在有礼貌的场合,甚至在医疗领域,这被视为禁忌。
我们关于死亡的想法充其量是令人困惑的:我们的记忆会在我们眼前闪现吗?遗憾会消耗我们的思想吗?隧道尽头是否出现明亮的光芒?对于大多数人来说,这将是一个较慢的过程,只要做好准备、保持良好的幽默感和一点信心,就会变得轻松。
临终关怀护士哈德利·弗拉霍斯(Hadley Vlahos)站在改变人们对姑息治疗态度的最前沿,她表明临终关怀可以教会我们如何生活,就像它可以教会我们如何死亡一样。
弗拉霍斯在一个严格的宗教家庭中长大,但在高中时朋友突然去世后开始质疑自己的信仰。
当她十九岁时怀孕时,她遭到社区的排斥,并进入护士学校学习,以便能够养活自己和孩子。
但护理很快就不仅仅是一份工作:当她专注于姑息治疗和临终关怀工作时,它就变成了一种使命。
在《中间人》一书中,弗拉霍斯讲述了她与同事之间最有影响力的经历——从那个直到临死前从未质疑过自己信仰的女人,到年长的男人看到他已故女儿的幻象,到这位年轻的病人感叹自己在短暂的一生中花了太多时间担心别人对她的看法,同时也分享了她自己迷人的旅程。
《中间人》以深刻的洞察力、谦逊和尊重的态度写成,是一部令人心碎的回忆录,它展示了关心他人如何能够改变生活,同时也为那些正在面对损失的人提供智慧和安慰,并为如何生活提供灵感。
