How we do dying and death really matters. This affects not only the one who is dying, but all who are touched by his or her journey. I hope this small book can help in reclaiming our understanding of death as a natural process, and one more affected by our own choices than we may imagine.

Margaret McCallum began her working life as a primary teacher, but soon swapped it for raising her own three children in multi-ethnic Porirua. She enjoys whatever ‘work’ she finds herself in, whether that be mentoring, writing, clutter-clearing, helping run a community centre or conducting a funeral. For ten years she moved about the UK, listening to life’s call and gathering an assortment of trainings and experiences. Since returning to Aotearoa-New Zealand eight years ago much of her focus has been on researching and pondering our approach to death and dying. A clutch of writing projects is now coming to fruition. Margaret has lived in some of Aotearoa-New Zealand’s beautiful far-flung places, and now calls Wellington home.
