"When You Just Can't Say Good-bye, Don't"

Before we lost our 11 year-old son, Steven, in an accident on April 19, 2003, we were a normal family living a normal suburban life. After the loss of a child, life has no "normal." Suddenly, you are labeled "bereaved parents," and life only feels like death. Grief support teaches you how to cope with the death of a child, but doesn't teach you how to keep that child close; how to find healthy, well-adjusted ways to keep the "hello's" coming from your loved one. This book speaks of life, living and hope instead of only sadness, grief and death. The journey described in "When You Just Can't Say Good-bye, Don't" differs from the traditional route after loss of a loved one. But why accept the biggest "no" of your life when you can hear a joyous "yes?"
