A book project by an alleged 87-year-old hospice nurse, drawing on forty years at the bedside to argue for using the good china now.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The landing page structures the book around a repeated three-part unit: a story, a sentence to carry forward, and a practice small enough to finish before the kettle boils. It shows an excerpt from the foreword and sample chapters including “The Good China” and “Red Nails,” while offering PDF and EPUB formats alongside a workbook bundle. The page attributes the material to forty years of hospice or palliative nursing and more than a thousand end-of-life conversations.
