Opis

The purpose of this book is to enable parents, whose children have died, to understand the grief process and to recommit to leading productive lives. This book covers the three stages of grief - shock, disorganization, and reorganization and gives helpful information about the process. Ways of emotionally letting go of the child are discussed as are the changes in relationships which are brought about by the death of a child. The main focus is on new beginnings - how a parent can reinvest in his or her own life after this devastating event. The material in this book provides practical guidelines and approaches to working through grief. It is primarily addressed to parents, however, therapists and others in the helping professions should find valuable material in it as well. The author shares her personal story and the stories of other parents, in the hopes that the reader will be inspired to pick up the pieces and move on.
