In ways that are inviting, yet tough, direct while offering comfort, we have a book that takes us through the private world of grief known only to mothers. Henderson shares her story, though never as a burden. Always that invitation! We move from the torn hearts, at our pace, to the edge, then , there, at the edge, a glimmer, the emerging and maybe, just maybe, no, with some certainty ... hope!

This book will be a helpful friend to grieving mothers, for fathers who need some help in understanding, and also for group guidance.
