"Gripping...A superb resource for boomers dealing with their parents' final days...as well as for health-care professionals who need to hear this story from the other side."

--Kirkus Reviews

With advances in medicine, technology, and daily diet and exercise practices, Americans are living longer than ever before. We have an unprecedented opportunity for meaningful closure - free of pain, among loved ones, with our affairs in order and spiritual calm attained. Instead, most of us discover that our doctor has minimal training in providing end-of-life care, and will seek to extend life no matter how painful, expensive and futile that effort might be.

In Last Rights, award-winning journalist Stephen P. Kiernan shows how patients and families can regain control of the dying process, creating familial intimacy like never before. Bolstered by both scientific research and intimate portraits of people from all walks of life, Last Rights offers a hopeful, profound vision for patients, doctors, and families: a way to honor people during their greatest vulnerability, a chance for families to reconnect, an opportunity for the medical system to treat patients with ultimate respect, a time to give comfort and compassion to those we most love.

Quality & Comfort with Fully Adjustable Support
Team Name: Eden, Size: Queen, Color: Classic
I used to buy pricey, handmade, 100% down pillows—until I learned about the cruelty behind down production. I stopped using down entirely: pillows, comforters, jackets, everything. Then began the long search for something that could at least come close to the comfort of down, I tried Tempur and countless others, but nothing came close. As a side sleeper, I need a pillow that’s high, SOFT, supportive, conforming, and huggable. After wasting money on at least five different pillows, I finally tried the Coop Home Goods Eden Pillow because of its adjustability. The cover is kind of thick, soft, and well‑made (I use a nice cotton pillow cover over it). The filling is soft and high quality. You can customize the height and firmness however you like. It even comes with plenty of extra fill. To my surprise, the shredded foam doesn’t make the pillow clumpy—something every other similar pillow I tried struggled with. The surface stays smooth and soft, and it’s been a total game‑changer. It’s a keeper! I’ve had mine for almost four years now and only needed to add more filling once, about 8–10 months ago. Toss it in the dryer on low with a couple of tennis balls, and it fluffs up like new. And the icing on the cake: outstanding customer service. I highly recommend this pillow and will definitely buy it again

Nothing like the original Eden, don’t buy the name
Team Name: Eden Cool+, Size: King, Color: Classic
I’ve had the original Coop Eden for 5+ years and it has been a great pillow, very comfortable, soft but supportive but when I purchased a new mattress I wanted to refresh my pillow and saw the Eden Cool+ and wanted to give it a try. I figured it could only be better than the original Eden…but it is not. While the outer cover is noticeably cooler to the touch, it is not soft like the Eden. Also, this cool material mostly gets negated if you use a pillow case anyway. The shaped fill material I would also say is “lumpier” for lack of a better word than the shredded material in the original. The combination of the harder, less supple outer casing and the lumpy material just aren’t a good combination. I will say it does sleep slightly cooler than the original Eden but not enough for the sacrifice in comfort. I would absolutely consider going back to the original Eden.

Unmatched Pillow with Unmatched Customer Service!!! 5 STAR ALL AROUND
Team Name: Eden Cool+, Size: King, Color: Classic
## A Dream Come True (and Customer Service to Match!) From the moment I first laid my head on the Coop Eden Cool+ pillow, I knew I'd found something special. It's truly a game-changer for hot sleepers like me. The "Cool+" technology isn't just a gimmick; it actually works to keep my head and neck comfortably cool throughout the night, leading to the most refreshing sleep I've had in years. The adjustable fill is brilliant, allowing me to customize the loft perfectly for my sleep style, which means no more waking up with neck pain. The support is fantastic – it cradles my head without feeling too firm, and it holds its shape beautifully. However, what truly elevates my experience to a full five stars, beyond the exceptional product itself, is the **dedicated and outstanding customer service**. I had a minor issue with my initial pillow (a rare manufacturing defect, which can happen with any product). I reached out to Coop Home Goods, and their response was nothing short of phenomenal. They were incredibly prompt, empathetic, and went above and beyond to resolve the issue swiftly and completely. They genuinely cared about my satisfaction and ensured I was left with a perfect product. It's rare to find a company that not only produces a superior product but also stands behind it with such integrity and genuine concern for their customers. The Coop Eden Cool+ pillow is an investment in your sleep, and knowing that you're backed by such an incredible customer service team makes it an even easier decision. Highly, highly recommend!

Dream pillow
I’ve been using latex pillows for over 30 years, and I can’t find them in local stores anymore. I’ve been needing to replace my pillow and finally decided to try this one. There are so many options on Amazon that it’s overwhelming. But this standard low loft pillow ended up being PERFECT. It feels amazing and just like the pillows I’ve been using since childhood. It is soft but cradles my head and neck perfectly. For me, it’s like sleeping on a gentle cloud. Very happy with my purchase. (Yes, it does have a slight latex odor. That is normal due to the material. It’s not very strong and it doesn’t bother me).

Great latex pillow
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
This review is for the biamktp queen pillow. Medium firmness. Finally a latex pillow worth keeping. After trying many other latex pillows I'm finally sleeping comfortably. This pillow is soft, yet firm enough to give your head support. I'm not having any neck or shoulder pain when I wake up. I'm sleep on my side about 95% of the time. 5% on my back. I've been sleeping with this pillow for about 10 days and still am happy with it. It was delivered on time, absolutely no odor and it has a removable cover. I highly recommend it.
