About this Book

 


      Encouraged and supported by her colleague and mentor, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, Fanslow-Brunjes’ “Hope System” is a continuation and a deepening of Kubler-Ross’s famous Five Stages of Dying.

 

 Cathleen Fanslow-Brunjes’ “Hope System,” which incorporates

the four stages of hope, is a proven program that has helped more than 40,000 individuals at all stages of their illness into death. This powerful and simple process enables families, friends, and
professional caregivers to understand and assist the dying on their journey. Fanslow- Brunjes shows the reader—both the living and the dying—how to use the power of hope to cope with the inevitable.
