Book Review of Surviving the Death of a Sibling: Living Through Grief When an Adult Brother or Sister Dies

Surviving the Death of a Sibling: Living Through Grief When an Adult Brother or Sister Dies

I will start by noting that I did not specifically 'read' this edition as I got the audio via overdrive from the library, which PBS does not show.

Having recently lost my father (94) and sister (60) in a tragic automobile accident, I guess I was looking for some sort of tribe. I found it in this book with many examples of folks that have experienced similar loss to me. Although there are no words for those of you who may have suffered such a loss, perhaps a bit of kinship can be found. And yes, yes, yes, I do believe I will never ever get over this loss.

I have probably never been overly religious and this author is clearly definitely that. If like me, you are not that, and you can get beyond the religious aspect, overall, it's a good read.
