Life After Death: Lessons and Perspectives on Surviving Overwhelming Grief (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798327776036)

6:42 am in glaring red.
What exactly my mom said to me that morning, I could not tell you. All I knew was that my dad would not be making it back home from the hospital this time.

That was 13 years ago and I can remember it like it was this morning. The image of the clock and the instant feelings of emptiness that followed are seared into my brain forever. Grief was here. Combine my journey through grief with almost a decade of experience as a social worker, it is safe to say grief and I know each other well. Grief has been my greatest teacher in life.

Navigating grief after devastating loss can be one of the most difficult, yet beautiful experiences, we can have. We are forced to learn lessons and take on new perspectives that seem unfathomable when in the depths of grief. Whether we are experiencing grief ourselves, or supporting someone through it, it is difficult to know what to expect or what steps to take.

Life After Death offers details on how to navigate some of the most common experiences within grief such as bargaining with time, finding gifts, moving through the messy parts and finding the strength to let life continue. Life After Death provides practical steps you can take, or support someone in taking, even on the darkest days of grief.

If you are looking for someone to sugar coat grief and tell you "they are in a better place," this is not the book for you.

Life After Death offers a real, raw account of how I myself, and many others I have worked with, survived overwhelming grief and the difficult lessons that came with it. If you're looking for a practical, REAL approach to surviving grief, without the typical grief fluff that somehow only makes you feel worse, look no further! Life After Death will provide you with just that.
