Surviving My First Year of Child Loss: Personal Stories from Grieving Parents

The death of a baby, whether through miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal loss, or the death of an older child, is the worst experience a parent can endure. Parents often don’t know how – or if – they will survive such an earth-shattering event.

This book includes twenty-six heart-wrenchingly honest essays by parents who convey their personal challenges and the ways they coped during the first twelve months after losing a child.

THIS BOOK SHOWS YOU HOW TO:

• • Build resilience in the midst of despair and hopelessness
  • Nurture your mind, body, and soul as you grieve
  • Discover hope without masking the reality of your pain

• Find ways to live with purpose, not just survive
• Feel supported and know that you are not alone

This book also helps friends and family understand a grieving parent’s struggle and how best to provide support.

Let this book be your companion on your grief journey or as you support the bereaved.
