In River District, Budva, Coast, the healthcare system touches nearly every family's experience of death—through ICUs, hospice programs, emergency departments, and long-term care facilities.

For River District, Budva's community, this book is a bridge between the clinical and the transcendent—between what medicine can explain and what it can only witness.
