There was a time when author Patricia Scanlan didn't know the answer to this question. "Of course, for a lot of people, the 'cult of immortality' is preferable to facing reality…"Bringing Death to Life could be described as a manual on death and dying. She wanted to talk about it but because I didn't know and I was afraid, I shut it down. In Bringing Death to Life, Hensley describes life and death as "two different points on the same beam of light". This is why talking to people about death, becoming 'intimate' with death, can be so helpful.
