Long description
Presenting simple yet highly effective methods for coping and healing, this book provides answers and relief to parents trying to deal with the loss of a child. It offers 100 practical, action-oriented tips for embracing grief, such as: writing a letter to the child who has died, spending time with others who will listen to the story of your grief, creating a memory book, box, or Web site; and remembering others who may still be struggling with the death. This guide discusses common problems for grieving parents such as dealing with marital stress, helping surviving siblings, dealing with hurtful advice, and exploring feelings of guilt. This compassionate resource will aid parents who have been through the death of a child, whether the passing was recent or many years ago, and whether the child was young or an adult.
