A reflective exploration of conscious living and conscious dying. Stephen and Ondrea Levine acknowledge fear of death and encourage readers to meet end-of-life with compassionate presence - and face the meaning and mortality questions it raises with honesty, awareness, and inner steadiness.

This memoir offers an honest look at caring for a parent as dementia progresses, especially when roles reverse and the emotional weight deepens over time. It shares moments of tenderness, exhaustion, humor, and heartbreak in a deeply relatable way.
