The phase of active dying often seems more difficult for families than for the dying themselves. Most people have never witnessed a death before. All sorts of fears, anxieties, and concerns well up and need to be addressed. Most of all, families need our support during this difficult, exhausting time. Families, loved ones, and even clinicians become the patients and look to us for support and guidance.
