Publisher's Synopsis
The tragic death of their youngest son, Mark (23), is yet another disaster in Ria and Joop Jasperse's life. How do you manage such a terrible loss? And what would you do with everything-partly as awful-before that happened? Ria decided to tell her story about her deceased son by way of an outlet. It resulted in this gripping book. Obviously, it deals with every emotion of sadness, anger, and powerlessness to bid a man his end. But Ria did not stop there. She always shows a remarkable resilience, which is founded on a sober-positive outlook on life. This is a book that would aid those who have lost a loved one to go through in this heavy period in their life. Due to a car accident, Ria Japerse lost her husband and son. She stayed with her daughter who was left behind. At a contact club, she met her second husband, who had lost his wife. Together, they shared the grief and started a new life. They built their own business and adopted two children. It was a miracle that after adopting, she gave birth to their son. But again, their son died at the age of 23 when he had an accident.
