This is a brilliant sensible view on the truth about grieving. The author does not buy into the standard American response of the ridiculous "5 stages". The author truthfully and with sensibility discovers the truth behind deep extensive grieving and how we should and must respond for our own well being. As a person living in deep grief I thank the author as I appreciate this approach which I now incorporate into my own grieving process. Thank you for this sensible approach to grieving with gratitude. This is very practical and based on the authors own experiences. through her own grief. Excellent book. Very appreciated.
