A book of guidance and reference for families following the death of a child.

'Every parent's grief is as unique, complex and surprising as the child they are mourning. It will grow and change, and will require a great deal of your care and attention throughout your life. In time, it may become something you can take into your heart and carry with you.'

How do you continue to live after your child has died? Many parents feel they will never recover from the enormity of this loss, regardless of their baby or child's age and the circumstances of their death. It's true that life will almost certainly never be the same again. But there is a future where you can and will live in a more peaceful acceptance of what has happened; where you won't always feel so broken. This book does not promise to make it better or to cure your sadness. It is here simply to help you keep going in the face of the truth you have been left with.

Jenni Thomas, OBE, is a bereavement and grief counsellor with over 60 years' experience working with and supporting the parents and other family members of children who have died. Inside this thoughtful book, you'll find the real stories of other parents who have experienced this very worst of losses, and hear about how they have continued to love and parent their children even after their death. You'll also find words of comfort and inspiration, information and gentle guidance gleaned from Jenni's lifetime spent helping parents and families to live after a child has died.
