A
Good Friend for Bad Times:
Helping
Others Through Grief
Friends, coworkers, and employers of a grieving person need
clear, concise directions about what to say and do, or not to
say and do, after someone they know has had a loved one die.
We often are at a loss for words of solace.
Behaviors
exhibited by the bereft puzzle us, sometimes for months after
the loss has occurred, and we are unsure how to respond to
their behaviors. Unfortunately, we sometimes fail to say the
right words of comfort, or worse, say nothing at all.
A
Good Friend for Bad Times:
Helping Others through Grief explains some of
the reasons grieving people behave in certain ways, and
provides suggestions for helping your friend cope as death
approaches, and up to a year after the death.
Religious, cultural, and regional differences are explained.
This book includes special considerations for death by
catastrophe and helping children cope with death. Also
included are discussions about abortion, miscarriage,
stillbirth, suicide, AIDS, Alzheimer’s and other illnesses.
Suggestions for helping a friend through the loss of a pet are
included.
A detailed resource guide is included.
