Send us a textIt's a really warm welcome back today to Anna Baverstock, a paediatrician from Taunton in Somerset. We are talking today about A Beginner's Guide to Dying by Simon Boas. Don't let the word dying in the title put you off. This is an absolutely wonderful and incredibly uplifting short book. It was written by Simon Boas in the last few months of his life.It is reflections on a life immensely well lived and his reflections on the way to be. How to live life to the full, especially when you know that it's going to be short. It's very moving, it's properly laugh out loud funny and it's taught me and Anna a great deal.Follow Anna on social media here:https://bsky.app/profile/annabav.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/annadoodleaday/
