This book offers parents a comforting way to grieve whenever the need arises, whether occasioned by the passing of a school bus or a glance at a family portrait.
The authors' sensitive reflections on the various occasions that bring grief to the surface include events that may happen daily, weekly, annually, or perhaps only once. Fifty-two themes ranging from birthdays to graduation help parents acknowledge their loss, express their feelings associated with the change, and recognize the experience as an opportunity for grief, as well as for growth.
Finding Your Way After Your Child Dies is intended for parents who have experienced the death of a child, whether due to natural causes, accident, or miscarriage. The themes may also be easily adapted for use in small and large group settings such as a support group, a prayer service, or a family ministry session.

Mucha, Constance
Gently Grieving is a hands-on guide to informing and teaching the bereaved to take care of their body, mind and spirit during the difficult work of grieving the death of a loved one. In other words, it is a "grief-work-book" for anyone who has experienced the pain of losing someone close to them. In seven brief but trenchant chapters, Dr. Mucha, tells her own tale of her "dark night of the soul" while encouraging the reader to write their OWN story, emphasizing that readers traumatized by the death of a loved one can be healed by this process. In addition to the author's personal grief experience, she offers anecdotes from her professional life and offers wisdom personally gained and gleaned from other grief educators. Included is a short bibliography and also recommended movies and readings for the time of grieving.
