Description
An experiential book in which the reader is invited into the minds and hearts of a family devastated by the death of their youngest member. Through the voices of the child's parents and siblings, this book explores the many feelings and thoughts experienced following this tragedy. The feelings of shock, anger, rage, sadness, fear, terror, denial, yearning, guilt and loneliness are palpable throughout, showing how the family coped, and what helped them to come to terms with their loss. When a Child Dies ultimately uncovers a family slowly emerging from darkness and chaos to reach some kind of acceptance, and to make the decision to live rather than to merely exist. ""[A] slim book rich with insight and hope."" - Catholic Library World - from Amzon
