My grandmother died of
cancer (lung). She died in the early 1970s. I remember
sitting at her bedside
when I was 14 praying God would take her because she was so
miserable. She
stopped eating and weighed 72lbs. She was only 5’2” to begin
with. Times have
certainly changed since her death, at least for me anyway. I
am more accepting
of death. I have often wondered if people go through this
dying process for us
to let go. What do you think?
Cultural background is
important to look at when you are working with any client.
Remember, there are
cultures, subcultures, and personal beliefs and thoughts
within every
individual. How would you work with your client who is dying
to help meet his
or her needs?
What is brain death?

What does dying with dignity mean to you?
Discuss within the Learning Team forum what important
concepts you have learned in this course.
How they impact your personal life and work.
There was a bunch of
important concepts that I have learned in this course. I
liked learning the
difference between the theory of Piaget and vigotsky and all
of the educational
differences in their theories. I liked a bunch of other
things that we did
through this course I especially like the stuff that we are
learning this week
with the concept of death. The most interesting thing about
it is the way it
said to be a process rather than an event because I have
always looked at it as
an event, but the readings make a bunch of sense to me.
