Messages from the Afterlife
Memoirs of a Hospice Nurse

Book Cover & Preview Text
My 13 years of working in hospice taught me one thing; there is no death. There is only life – the life we are aware of now and the life beyond our vision. It is the life beyond the veil; the transition of the soul leaving the physical body and ascending to higher realms of consciousness. Reflecting back, my fondest memories were the connections with families and appreciation for the love and support I provided as their RN Case Manager. I felt honored to make a difference in their lives when they were at their most vulnerable and full of fear. I had seen so much devotion in family members who stayed at the bedside of their loved one, day and night, not wanting to leave. The patient and family members felt a palpable fear with the approach of death. The person dying reminded them of their own mortality which was something most people avoided. However, so many miracles also occurred during the dying process. A sacred space was created in the midst of this divine passage into love and bliss. As a Reiki Master and Shaman, I encouraged this sacred space when patients were ready – and, sometimes, when they were not. My patients gave me many gifts. The most important was my willingness to look death in the face which allowed me to overcome my fears about my own mortality. My vision for this book is to help others overcome their natural fears and to shed light on end-of-life issues.

About the Book
Mary Hill was spiritual as a teenager and fascinated with the concept of death and dying. She read many books on the subject, but still had fear about her own death. She shares her unique and spiritual experiences as a Registered Nurse and Hospice Case Manager. A close relationship with each patient showed her the divine grace that accompanied the dying process as she assisted them to transition to the afterlife. Several of her patients kept their promise to appear to her after they passed. This was evidence that life, or consciousness, continued after our physical body was dropped. Mary describes her journey watching her mother’s decline over the years and experienced the family dynamics that she knew so well. Her mother appeared with messages of love and life lessons for facing many of her fears after her transition. More hospice stories occurred as she continued as a per diem nurse and performed Reiki and Shamanic healing work. Mary shares her views and personal experience on the controversial subject of medical cannabis in treating pain and anxiety. Further discussion continues with her thoughts about Alternative Medicine versus Western Medicine.
