Early Readers say:

"I enjoyed the aspect of it being written as if advice to a personal friend."

"The practical advice for children is solid! The healing portion coupled with the meditation process was well written and I think some of the best advice. One of the reoccurring themes is that everyone is different, expresses their grief and loss in different ways; this brochure gives both license and permission for each person in similar circumstances to come to grips with their own reality, their own experience." --Don L.

"I could’ve used this when my brother died. I could’ve used it when my father died. After years of experience and having learned most of what you outlined, it would have been a great read after my mother died a couple/3 years ago." --DWL
