"e;In a society that treats death as an ultimate shame and defeat, this book hands the reader not only comfort and solace, but calm authoritative directions to an alternative path. Joy's years of experience and the love that she extends to readers of this book make it invaluable in achieving a comfortable passage in the voyage that we must all make. I have enjoyed the benefit of her expertise in easing the desperate plight of a loved one and have had the privilege of working with her to achieve such ends for others."e; Guy Cundell PhD, BMus (Hons.), GDipEd John Mitchell known and respected for his work in adult education, his contribution to aged care, and to community Government in the role of a Justice of the Peace has this to say:I have shared with Joy many workshops on Advance Care Directives. Even as a co-presenter, I have learned so much. She has made the topic captivating with stories and insights about preparing for death, and the ways of reducing anxiety about death. This book captures much of her wisdom and provides practical assistance to those working in this area or preparing for their own end of life. I witnessed Joy's passion for reducing our fear of death and dying when I worked with her on the board of Soul Talks Inc, the charity she established to promote self-healing. This book, filled with helpful information and insights for anyone approaching death or supporting someone through the process, is an illustration of that passion. Peter Mulraney, author of My Life Is My Responsibility: Insights For Conscious Living. As chair of the registered charity Soul Talks Inc. that Joy Nugent founded in 2018, I have had the pleasure of working closely with Joy for a number of years. I have found her passion to uphold the objection of the constitution in relieving death anxiety to be unwavering. In spite of her age, she continues to offer free forums in Adelaide on Spiritual Development and creating Advance Care Directives. She gives her time freely to all those who have inquiring minds as to the purpose and meaning of life in a non-judgmental and inclusive way based on her experience and insights. This book is an example of her life's work. Nathaniel Nguyen LLB, Director at JL Lawyers.
