    About this ebook

    Part how-to manual, part love story, Be the Noodle shows readers how to help a loved one die at home. You'll learn how to stay sane, take comfort in sick humor, tap into superpowers you never knew you had, and become a crazy-good caregiver -- one of the most courageous jobs most of us never want or have ever been trained to do.

    With humor and grace Author Lois Kelly shares the the gut wrenching, like not being able to call 911 during a crisis once you sign up with hospice, to the mundane, like dealing with too many banana breads from well wishers, to the rarely talked about, like advocating for patient martinis with the oncologist.

    Lois KELLY

    Lois Kelly, an author and marketing strategist, counsels executives in large corporations like FedEx, SAP, HP, Fidelity Investments, Dunkin' Donuts, TJ Maxx, SAS Institute, University of Massachusetts, The Conference Board, USAA, Sapient, Communispace, and many more. They hire Lois presumably for help on communicating change and mobilizing word of mouth marketing. The unstated, real reason they hire her is that they are rebels at work, looking for a rebel emeritus who can guide them in successfully shepherding their change agendas inside large, complex organizations – and outside to customers. Being a rebel can be dangerous, and they recognize the value of having an experienced guide.
