Feelings that are increasingly prevalent in our contemporary world. The existential vacuum points to a domain of experience not well described by the DSM or treated with a bio-medical approach.

Within the contributor’s chapters, They Died Waiting exposes insensitive and unsafe practice, the brutal processes that bereaved relatives experience, and the empty ‘lessons learnt’ rhetoric. Nevertheless, the narratives are bursting with integrity, values, compassion, love, and hope.
