    Hi all,

    Suggest me a book when you’ve been given 3 weeks to live due to cancer.

    I need book suggestions to help comfort my father in law in the long days in the hospital stays.

    He reads a lot of history books and always has a book on the go.

    I’m looking for books that will bring comfort in his final few months and come to peace with everything that’s happening but also some books that will distract him from the real world

    Hopefully you guys have some suggestions.

    Thanks

      “The end of your life book club” by will schwabe. I read this a long time ago but I remember it was pretty emotional and impactful.

      Sorry to hear about your father-in-law. The first book that came to mind was If Cats Disappeared from the World (the narrator’s days are numbered). The book explores themes like love, life and death, and brings warmth and comfort.
