“This beautifully written guide offers specific and wise
advice for confronting another’s anguish, as well as a deep understanding of
grief.” —Judy Tatelbaum, author of
The Courage to Grieve
Time and again we stumble for words and actions that will
reflect our feelings of compassion and our desire to be of comfort during a
time of loss. Based on the authors' extensive research, their workshops, and
their professional experience, and filled with personal stories and anecdotes,
this heartfelt, practical, and accessible resource covers the three most common
areas of concern: What can I write? What can I say? and What can I do?
The authors address such issues as:
Special circumstances—sudden death, suicide, the death of a
parent or child
How to compose a letter of condolence—including a variety of
sample letters
How to be of service—from ideas for thoughtful gifts, to
assisting with business affairs and funeral arrangements, to suggested ways of
helping in the aftermath
When more help is needed—the benefits of grief therapy and
support groups, with a listing of recommended reading and other resources
