I Wasn't Ready to Say Goodbye
I find this book very helpful in dealing with the SUDDEN death of a love one. My son died this past June at the age of 17 in a car accident. I am devastated by his death. I continue to function and live my life, but when I am alone and think of him, I am so emotionally drained with crying and talking to God and questioning, why? why? This book reassures me that I am normal and am grieving just like anyone else has before me. It has given me hope that this emotional rollercoaster will someday ease up and I will think of him with many happy memories and not just the pain of today. I also am giving this book to an acquaintance of mine who just lost her husband in a very sudden, unexpected death with a note letting her know how much this book has help me.
