On Dogs and Dying On Dogs and Dying

Автор: Michelle A. Rivera

Год издания: 0000

Dogs know when we are feeling down. They love it when we are happy and seeking friendship and fun, and they understand when we are feeling sad and desperate. This book presents a series of real-life tales of the positive effects dogs have had on people at the end of their lives, chronicling the visits by two therapy dogs, Woody and Katie, to patients in a south Florida hospice facility. Through twenty-one stories, infused with humor amidst the sadness, Michelle Rivera, an experienced animal therapist, explores the many ways in which animals can ease human suffering. Her book begins with the deeply personal story of her own mother Katherine's illness and dying appeal to have the company of a dog, and proceeds to tell the stories of patients young and old who the author was inspired to visit with her «hospice hounds.» As well as demonstrating many of the techniques of animal therapy, Rivera argues powerfully that not allowing pets in health care facilities is a counterproductive policy that deprives patients of comfort at the time they need it most.Some of the stories were previously published in Hospice Hounds (2001), but the author has substantially expanded her introduction and added an invaluable final section that gives practical tips on training and certifying your dog to be a therapy animal.

В какой-то момент я остановилась. Сделала паузу. Я постоянно убегала от себя, боялась остаться наедине со своими мыслями, но сейчас мне это просто необходимо. Раньше я боялась говорить о том, что происходит у меня в душе, мне не о чем было говорить с людьми. Мне было проще поговорить с самой собой, с текстами, с заметками в блокноте, но рассказать всё какому-то определённому человеку я не могла. Потеряв свои крылья, я опустилась на самое дно. Благодаря этому я обрела новый смысл.
