Written mainly for those facing the prospect of their own death, much of the content isn’t relevant for others. However, there are a couple of chapters which are particularly relevant to my interest in books supporting children and teens who are grieving:
Chapter 16: How to talk to kids
Chapter 21: Grief.
There were a couple of quotes which resonated with me:
P111 Grief is a shape-shifter and varies in intensity and form as it winds its way through a person. You can feel your insides wresting with the loss, trying to reconcile the truth of what’s gone with what remains.
P343… [T]he pain of loss stems from the power of love. If you didn’t care this would all be easier.
Some of the advice is very UK specific.
