7 Steps to Normal Bladder Control or Perfect Endings

7 Steps to Normal Bladder Control: Simple, Practical Tips and Techniques for Staying Dry

Author: Elizabeth Vierck

7 Steps to Normal Bladder Control shatters the myth that incontinence is a normal part of getting older. It is not normal, and in 60 to 70 percent of all cases, incontinence can be either cured completely or greatly improved with the methods and techniques outlined in this book.

Endorsed by leading urologists who specialize in the treatment of incontinence, 7 Steps to Normal Bladder Control is comprehensive, straightforward, simple to understand, and easy to use. It is the only available book that addresses men's as well as women's issues. Its easy-to-follow, step-by-step program outline includes a fill-in-the-blanks diary for tracing incontinence patterns and measuring progress. By making freedom from incontinence a realistic goal, it helps readers reclaim their lives.

Perfect Endings: A Conscious Approach to Dying & Death

Author: Robert Sachs

Perfect Endings shows how the death experience is an expansion into a wider dimension of our core being. It is written as a series of stories that allow us to be privy to the dying process of individuals with whom the author worked in his capacity as a professional hospice counselor. Each case illustrates a particular aspect of this transformative process, and Sachs presents different approaches to mastering the task of letting go of life while providing valuable guidance to caregivers, family members, and those who are facing death themselves.

Media Reviews

The book is not at all linear or explanatory and in that lies its strength. It's the best book I've read for getting a feel of what it's actually like to attend a dying person. It works because it conveys the complexity, the many layeredness, the jumble of events and people that tent to coalesce around a deathbed. In this way it would be useful in preparing anyone who has not attended a death to do so.

What People Are Saying

Stephen Levine
Perfect Endings is a book about making peace while we still can. It offers a perfect beginning for the rest of our newly lived life.


Lobsang Rapgay
Robert shows us how dying is not only a part of living, but also how it is possible for us to prepare for our own death and--as caregivers to others dying--how we can help them with this polar process.


Catherine D. Edgar
Perfect Endings invites us to the real world of dying people and the significant individuals caring for them. He helps us know there is a greater Power orchestrating life and death, and that our part is to listen, learn, and support with nonjudgemental love.|Catherine D. Edgar, M.A., Hospice Counselor
