Gegen die Einsamkeit Sterbenskranker

How can communication at the end of life be successful for all those involved in the dying process? The terminally ill experience illness, suffering, dying and death differently than healthy people. People at the deathbed can be truly supportive of the terminally ill if they are willing and able to expose themselves to the incomprehensible and allow themselves to be touched. Based on his many years of experience in meeting the sick, dying and their relatives, doctors and nurses, the author describes ways of mutual support and understanding that are suitable for everyday life.
