“As a bedside hospice volunteer,” writes Goldberg in an earlier Mindful article, “The Hard Work of Dying,” “I’ve found that the ideas and emotions people carry with them through life often determine the quality of their death.” Goldberg recently won a 2011 International Book Award in the Spirituality: Inspirational category for his book Lessons for the Living: Stories of Forgiveness, Gratitude, and Courage at the End of Life, published by Trumpeter, an imprint of Shambhala Publications. PX Media Group announced the winners and finalists of the book awards on May 11. Read “Shoot Me, Please: The Right to Die” here.
