Publisher's Synopsis
Words seem inadequate to describe the depths of sorrow parents experience when they lose a child. At times you may feel intensely isolated, as if you are the only mother or father who has ever known such anguish. Helping you find hope again is our mission in Hope for Grieving Parents: Inspirational Stories from OpenToHope.com. Whether your child died last week or last decade, we know you can benefit from the wisdom of those who have negotiated the long days and nights of the grief journey. That's why we created the Open to Hope Foundation, a content-rich, heart-based online forum to help people cope with their pain, heal their grief, and begin investing in their futures. Compiled in this book are articles published on the foundation's website, which were written by bereaved parents. By reading about their experiences, may you find comfort and reassurance. It is our heartfelt hope that as you read, you will think, "If they can make it, so can I." We too have grieved deeply and know what it's like to experience dark days with no light to lead us. Whenever you run out of hope and can't find the light to guide you, we invite you to lean on our hope until you can find your own.
