The ABC's of Grief: a Handbook for Survivors meets bereaved persons
wherever they might be in the grieving process, providing snatches of
meaning, hope, empathy and understanding. It's a product of the author's
own grief experience and includes materials collected over a period of
three years. Confronting her loss, Christine Adams found that it was all
right to grieve at her own pace: one day at time, one thought, word, and
letter at a time. Over time, she grew and healed.This Handbook's
alphabetical format allows readers to focus on any aspect of grief that
suits them. If a newly bereaved person finds themselves absorbed in
"anger" or "anxiety," he or she can read that section - then go back to
reread those parts of the handbook, and with each visit find some new
realizations and meaning. Every section contains appropriate quotations,
stories, and poems, written by survivors who found solace in writing.
