Barbara Karnes is a Registered Nurse and author who noticed, after her experience at the bedside of hundreds of people before they died, that each death she witnessed was following an almost identical script. Each person was going through the same thing. And most families had the same questions.
It was after these realizations that Barbara sat down and wrote the Little Blue Book that changed an industry.
Gone From My Sight, which takes its name from the poem to which it alludes, has been in print continuously since 1985 and has sold over eight million copies. It has been co-opted and copied and imitated even as Barbara Karnes continues to publish and travel the world giving lectures. It is the original source.
We spoke with Barbara about her caregiving career, her own grief upon the loss of her husband, and what people need to know about the dying process.
