It seems there are many grief-worthy events in our lives this season. Those who have survived the loss of loved ones to suicide, unexpected illness, violence, and deaths of despair offer guidance for these painful and confusing times.

Honest, gentle advice for those who have survived an unspeakable loss—the suicide of a loved one.

Surviving the heartbreak of a loved one's suicide—you don't have to go through it alone. Authors Beverly Cobain and Jean Larch break through suicide's silent stigma in Dying to Be Free, offering gentle advice for those left behind, so that healing can begin.
