Description
We are rarely fully prepared for a loved one's death or our reaction to it. Millions of people worldwide struggle with the loss of a loved one. You don't need to learn how to work through your grief all on your own. In Grief & Loss Insights, author Lise Leblanc has compiled brief stories and lessons from experts in the field and people just like you who have experienced loss themselves.
The short stories in Grief & Loss Insights offer understanding and support from a trusted friend who has been there. Each story shines a light on just one facet of the journey, so you can return to this book when your story begins to coincide.
This book is edited by Lise Leblanc and features stories by the following: Barry Spilchuk, Hugh Kruzel, Karen Hourtovenko, Vicky Laforge, Joy Wirta, Penny Kreitzer, Angie Nussey, and Sandi Emdin.
About the authors
Lise Leblanc has the experience and insight to make your caregiving journey a little lighter. As a registered psychotherapist, conflict resolution specialist and caregiver she has seen the impact that caregiving without personal care can wreak on all lives involved. Her personal lived experience has also shaped her useful perspectives. She was the main caregiver for her grandmother who had Alzheimer's disease when her grandfather died suddenly. Her own parents and siblings lived afar and she was working full time while raising her two young children. The experience has shaped her dedication to helping people take responsibility for the quality of their own lives at the same time as making space to support a conscious caregiving model.
