Description

1>"The loss of a child is perhaps the most tragic event that can occur in a parent´s life. This book provides insight to the emotional trauma and the grieving process encountered with death. It is written from the heart of one who loved so deeply and may be the most important book friends and relatives can read or share with others who are grieving." Kathy A. Carter 2>"I read your book last night and was very moved by the whole horrible experience of losing your precious son. I hope writing all of your emotions and turmoil down will be a help to others who have gone through the same trauma. If your book finds its way into their hands, I know it will be a comfort and kind of blueprint (if there ever could be such a thing) for them to not feel so alone. You are right in saying that someone who has not experienced having a child dying can never know the right things to say to a parent who has. Often, we say nothing or just the wrong thing because we are afraid that we, or the grieving parent will break down. I know the ache will always be there for you, and your family, but I hope that it will dull with time and that you all will have room in your hearts again to celebrate the happier times you had and will have in the future." Cathy Patterson 3>"It was a very "down-to-earth" book on your experience, thoughts and pain. All I can say is that I am "glad" that you weren´t alone that fateful day in Atlanta. I might not have been the best company or the most compassionate person at the time, but I would have never left you "alone" at the airport or wherever. I believe it will help a lot of parents who are dealing with this pain (over 2,600 soldiers have died in Iraq already) and just want to know that they are not alone. As I read the book, I felt I was "living again" the pain, desperation, and all those anxious moments again in Atlanta. I felt a "knot" in my chest as I was reading your book and it wasn´t even my child who died. I suggest it be available in funeral homes, hospital chapels, or anywhere death "lives". This book will probably appeal to a great number of needy people. I do hope you get this book published soon and that it comforts those parents who have had to endure the greatest pain a human being can feel.......... the loss of one´s child."
