by AMELIA E. POHL with psychologist Dr. Barbara J. Simmonds
CONTENTS
Chapter 1: Grief Before Death
Most deaths are expected. Family members often begin to grieve their loss
before the death occurs; although many do not recognize that the anger and
sadness they are experiencing is all part of the
grieving process.
Chapter 2: The Grieving Process
This section explains the grieving process and gives suggestions about how to
help someone who
has suffered a loss
Chapter 3: Helping a Child Through the Loss
Children do grief. Too often family members do not recognize that a child may
be having difficulty accepting the loss. This section explains how to recognize when a
child needs help to get past the grieving process.
Chapter 4: The Adult Orphan
Baby boomers have spent half a century with their parents. Now many find
themselves suddenly
"orphaned." Dealing with that loss may be difficult to do.
Chapter 5: Strategies to Cope with the Loss
Not everyone struggles with the loss of a family member, but for those who
are experiencing
difficulty, this section offers simple, practical, things to do that may
help.
Chapter 6: The Problem Death
The sudden death, the violent death, the death of a child; these are all
problem deaths. This section gives community resources that one can turn to for assistance in coming to
terms with the loss.
