The Grieving Parent's Book of Hope: How to Survive the Loss of Your Child Norma Sawyers-kurz

THE GRIEVING PARENT'S BOOK OF HOPE: HOW TO SURVIVE THE LOSS OF YOUR CHILD, is a comprehensive and compassionate journey down the road of grief. The book is written from the intimate firsthand experience of a mother who has lost a child and holds the reader in a continual warm embrace. What makes this book unique, therefore, is that it is written by someone who has experienced what you are now experiencing, the death of a child. Although competent doctors, psychiatrists, and others have written many books about the grieving process, this book has been written by someone who understands how you feel. The suggestions provided in this book are organized into ten chapters that roughly parallel what experts call the stages of grief, as follows: (1) Surviving Shock and Denial; (2) Surviving Emotional Suffering; (3) Surviving Depression; (4) Surviving Panic; (5) Surviving Guilt; (6) Surviving Anger; (7) Surviving physical Aspects of Grief; (8) Surviving Life Changes; (9) Engaging in Meaningful Activity; and (10) Affirming Reality
