There are lessons for everyone -- those confronting death for the first rime and those living on after loss. As technology allows us to live longer, most of us will experience the 'abnormal normalcy' lived in the homes of the seriously ill. Ordinary daily routines commingle with the terror of waiting for the next medical report, the next stage, the next new hope. At a time when most of us seek alternatives to the inhumanity of dying in impersonal institutions. Anna found her solution in her own home surrounded by loved ones assisted by hospice professionals.
