Coping With Death

This book was written a number of years ago by Joseph Bayly after he suffered the loss of two of his sons. He describes how this affected him and how the "help" of others made a difference in that. Sometimes the "help" was beneficial, but often it was not. Through his suffering he shows us a way to both cope with the death of a loved one AND how to help a friend who has suffered such a loss. It is a deeply personal and profound book on the subject which has provided much thought on the subject and also shown me a much different way to be that "true friend" when someone suffering a loss needs a friend the most.

An excellent book on helping anyone thru grieving

This book encourages readers who are struggling with grief. It is also helpful to provide as a gift to those going through the process. It touches on every subject from auto accidents, to terminal illness and concentrates on faith in all of this. It helps the reader answer some of the questions as to why. Every time I buy this book, I purchase 2 copies. I keep one, as I always loan it out and it gets lost, and the other one, someone seems to always need it at that exact moment in their lives. This is a great book to have in your library always.This author lost 3 of his own children and speaks with the experience of one who really knows.
