Grief doesn't discriminate. It will touch all of us at some point; an
uninvited guest that can't be shown the door, that takes over our lives
and changes us forever. In this gut-wrenchingly beautiful book, Darrelyn
Gunzburg shows us how knowing the shape of grief and its consequences
over time give edges and boundaries to this dark pathway, revealing that
through the prickly branches and the mist, life awaits us at the edge of
the forest, dressed in cloths of gold and sustained with love and
warmth.
Helping ourselves first means we gain the wisdom that grief gives us to
help others on their unique journey to encounter a changed future with
focus, determination, and understanding when grief comes to call. To
allow someone in grief to give voice to their experiences is not just
being kind. It is saving their life.
