The Death of an Adult Child

"This new work addresses the phenomenon of parental grief in general, emphasizing the experiences of parents of children who died at ages eighteen and over. The author, Jeanne Webster Blank, wrote this work because she needed help in dealing with her grief after her 39-year-old daughter died of breast cancer in 1987."--BOOK JACKET. "This is not a clinical study; it is based solely on the personal experiences of the author and some sixty other bereaved parents who answered her questionnaire. This book demonstrates that bereaved parents share many similar reactions to their adult child's death; it lets grieving parents know it is acceptable to feel and act the way they do; it attempts to explain what is happening to them; it tells them what others have done to help themselves; it assures them that some day they will be better, though never completely the way they were before their loss."--BOOK JACKET.

המשפט הראשון: In the middle of the journey of this our life, I found myself in a dark wood, for I had lost my way.
