Abstract

The three poems represent three perspectives surrounding the death of my grandfather: my grandfather, the nurse, and extended family. My grandfather was at peace and wanted to let go. The nurse was afraid of the double-effect of giving morphine. The extended family did not understand the circumstances of the death.
