When a loved one dies, grief is natural, inevitable, and painful. Our reaction depends upon the impact the person had on our life, our own sense of self, and how prepared we are for dealing with bereavement. This revealing guide explores the subject in depth and with sensitivity, and looks at positive ways to come to terms with the separation. It then goes on to help you reassess your life, reaffirm your relationships and discover the strength necessary to look to the future.
