( ) A handy and reassuring guide for those who are grieving and those who want to best support them. Culturally, we are afraid of grief and as a result the author says we don't know how to act around it. We offer platitudes, awkward reassurances, and quick solutions. We believe grief is something to get over as soon as possible but the author argues that your grief is your unique journey, one to be honored and leaned into, and the best thing others can do is to bear witness with you and be a support, not a problem solver. The author writes from tragic experience; readers in need will feel seen and acknowledged. Practical tips and activities are provided for easing the immediate suffering of grief. There are so many myths and misconceptions about grief in our society, and this book debunks them all. It presents a new model of grief that allows and encourages the griever to feel what they feel without worry about societal timetables. Megan speaks the unvarnished, no-sugar-coating truths about grief and loss that so badly need to be spoken and understood. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
