But what can I say?

Ways to help bereaved parents
When our 14 year old son died, many people wanted to be supportive to us, but didn't know how. They asked me what things they could do or say, that might be helpful (or not helpful). I included comments from dozens of other bereaved parents too. The result is a book of ideas, suggestions and insights which would be very useful for anyone who wants to help grieving people. I have also discovered that grieving people appreciate the book too and have experienced emotional healing as they read it.

I thought I was grieving wrongly but discovered in your book, that I was 'normal'. It's been very healing for me. Thankyou.

I wanted to say how wonderfully informative (your book) was

You put your heart and soul into it! It's excellent!

Couldn't put it down! I'd read it again!

I know it's going to be an incredible help to those who are grieving and to those who want to help.
