|  | | A Child's Grief Surviving the Death of a Parent The death of a parent affects thousands of children every year. The depth of their plight often goes unrecognized or unacknowledged. This book helps adults understand the deep impact of loss for a child, and what it takes to begin to heal.
For a child, when a parent dies, it's like losing the world. The fears and unanswered questions often stay lodged in the child's mind for years, undermining the mourning process and preventing true healing.
As the surviving parent, I was faced with my own grief and that of my children, when we lost a husband and father. I saw first hand the result of trauma and bewilderment that confronts grieving families. I wrote this book to help others who struggle with the emotional impact of bereavement.
I have explored the subject through both personal interviews with survivors, | |  | | No Time to Grieve A Survivor's Guide to Loss and Healing No Time to Grieve offers readers pertinent information for solving the problems of the bereaved. It takes the reader through both the practical and the emotional steps needed to move from mourning to new life.
This book is a primer that covers topics such as services, finances, probate, health issues, memorials, and returning to work. It then proceeds to give support and insight regarding the personal and emotional problems that must be managed. It is an excellent resource guide for the grieving and those who help them. Simply and clearly written, it is a hands-on reference book that gives answers to tough questions, and comfort when you need it most.
