    Ordered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.

    touching tale of compassion

    "Oscar was always there." By coincidence or by sharpened senses, Oscar the cat unerringly says goodbye to terminally ill dementia patients (in hospice care). Humans deal with the imminent death of a family member in different ways. It doesn't matter to Oscar, by choice or design, he curls up next the dying patient in their final hours.

  • Life in the real world.

    I bought this book because of the story about Oscar but its really a story about people with Alzheimer and Dementia and the people close to them and how they deal with it. My mother is turning 96 next week and living by herself and it gives me insight on what I will be facing and how to face it.

  • Very heartwarming and inciteful.

    Wonderful story that just goes to show that humans don't have all the answers or know what is besst for their fellow man.
