If I Should Die Before I Wake is a thoughtful probe into the issues of death and dying. It includes information, speculation, and reflections on embodiment, the afterlife (including heaven and hell), grief, and dying well. The work is intended for those who worry about death (and who doesn't?), as well as for those who are facing their own imminent death or that of a loved one. Far from an "answer book," If I Should Die Before I Wake leads the reader in mining the riches of their own inner wisdom. Indeed, there are no firm guidelines for how one is to go about preparing to enter whatever is next in or after this life, but there are ways to approach the questions that are faithful to a person's truest and most holy self.
