The Beauty in the End

BJ Miller, MD, is the kind of person who can make you feel good about death—and, in turn, life.

How do we help our loved ones find comfort and beauty at the end of their lives? How do we make room for grief? How do we make meaning of it all? And how do we feel the wonder, the joy, along the way? “The kindest service a person can do the world,” Miller says, “is to find happiness.” He helps point us in that direction.
