Donese Mayfield has been a therapeutic musician for over fifteen years. She plays harp for hospice patients in medical and home settings going wherever the patient resides. Donese does not simply provide entertainment, but is often called upon to assist with pain management or agitation. Music provides comfort to the patient and often assists in the transition from this life. Frequently, the comfort extends far beyond the patient to encompass the patient's family and caregivers. Family of former patients often recall the comfort she provided years later. The book recounts many stories of the affects of music at the very end of life. Those interested in end of life experiences, including family of hospice patients and caregivers providing comfort, will be interested in these stories of graceful passages.
