The In-Between

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

In this #3 New York Times bestselling memoir, TikTok star and hospice nurse Hadley Vlahos demystifies death through inspiring stories about her patients.

What can people at the end of their lives teach us about living well today? In this heart-warming memoir of wisdom, redemption, and even joy, Hadley Vlahos beautifully shares life lessons and stories from being a palliative care nurse, and how end-of-life patients informed her sense of purpose.

With warmth and compassion, she tells the stories of patients who have changed her life. From the woman who never once questioned her faith until she was close to death, to the older man seeing visions of his late daughter, and the young patient who laments that she spent too much of her short life worrying about what others thought of her, each story raises vital questions about living, dying, and the afterlife.

Offering comfort to those navigating loss and inspiring us to live our lives to the fullest.
