Sub-titled "Love after Death", this sensitive guide by an experienced counsellor covers the difficult, strange and rocky terrain a parent experiences when a child dies.
Using the words of bereaved parents it explores the impact of a child's death and the many individual ways parents struggle after this shattering event.
Overshadowing all other concerns is the enduring bond with the child, however brief.
Issues explored, amongst others, range through talking about this overwhelming experience as an individual or within a group; maintaining the bond through ritual and/or spirituality and - finally - to accepting that the bond with a dead child may even become a source of new energy and strength.
An original and valuable guide to continuing love after death.
