>Death Be Not Proud by John Gunther
After my grandmother died, my dad gave me this book. It is a memoir from the 40s. Gunther wrote this book about his teenage son who died from a brain tumor. His son, Johnny, was a brilliant kid. Just thinking about it still stirs something in me.
>Mindfully Facing Disease and Death: Compassionate Advice from Early Buddhist Texts by Bhikkhu Analayo
When my grandfather was killed, I was still in undergrad doing my bachelor's in religious studies. This book goes over all sorts of things addressed in the Pali literature, including viewing the Buddha as a doctor, meditations to do when you're ill, ways to manage pain with mindfulness, what to learn from patients, ways to deal with grief, instructions for the deathbed, advice for the terminally ill, meditative advice for the actively dying, deaths of both lay disciples and the Buddha himself, as well as instructions on maranasati (mindfulness of death).
