Summary:
"Almost everyone will agree, the loss of a child is the worst grief that humans can experience. And that crushing grief puts immense strain on the marriage, family relationships, and friendships that few can understand. That's why this book was written. In it Candy McVicar, a grieving mom who leads a ministry for grieving parents, and Dr. Gary Chapman, relationship expert and author of The 5 Love Languages®, team up to help couples who are facing the unimaginable. They'll teach you how to: cope with the complex feelings that come with the grief process, understand your spouse's unique grieving needs and support him/her, and use the five love languages in grief-appropriate ways. There is nothing that can make the pain of losing a child go away, but you can get help coping with it. This is a perfect resource for grieving parents or friends who'd like to help"-- Provided by publisher.
