At Marcia's initial, formal entry into Pella's hospice home care program, we were given the book entitled "The Four Things That Matter Most", authored by Dr. Ira Byock. I started reading this to Marcia while still in Pella, and then we finished reading it after we arrived at the cabin.
The tenth anniversary edition of this book has the subtitle "A Book About Living". I think this captures the essence of the book's focus. The four "Things" are given below. Note that these are not just considerations for those who are dying, but are important for everyone, at every stage of one's life. Please read this book and be open to changing your life and family.
