A palliative care doctor’s surprising and heartwarming guide to dying well and living better.
End of life still has life in it. Tackle the difficult conversations with humor, understanding, and candor in this one-of-a-kind guide to end-of-life care.From a cancer patient prioritizing their last sip of orange soda to surprising sexual innuendos from the dying, Exit Strategies shines a compassionate and hilarious light on end-of-life care and what we can learn from the dying. In the face of the difficult discussions loved ones and patients often avoid, seasoned hospice and palliative care expert Dr. Cynthia X. Pan shares a new perspective on the experiences that make us human.
Part practical guide, part heartwarming stories of wisdom, growth, and freedom, Exit Strategies equips readers with the lessons and tools to make end-of-life decisions with confidence and care. Covering topics from cultural customs, music, and the comfort of food, to understanding advanced directives and how to have the tough conversations, in this book you’ll find the light in what may seem to be the darkest times.
Discover:
- Intimate stories of patients facing end-of-life care, revealing how they found meaning, humor, and opportunities to help others even in their final days.
- Practical strategies for having difficult conversations about advance directives and final wishes with family members.
- An insider’s perspective of hospice care, including avenues for at-home care and the range of care options available.
- How to maintain dignity and quality of life during serious or terminal illness, including approaches to pain management, family meetings, sexuality, and spirituality that may surprise you.
- Eye-opening insights into how patients and families can reframe their end-of-life journey, including “live funerals,” creating personalized end-of-life celebrations, and ways to leave a legacy.
Exit Strategies is a road map for facing mortality with courage. Whether you’re a patient, caregiver, doctor, or nurse, Dr. Pan’s wisdom will help you approach end-of-life issues with greater peace of mind and an understanding that you’re not alone. Empower yourself to live fully, even when facing life’s final chapter.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
