Living with the death of your parent, brother or sister from cancer

Living with the death of your parent, brother or sister from cancer

Nothing can prepare you for the death of someone you love. There could be a lot of pain, confusion and hurt going on for you right now.

This book is meant to be like a friend who will travel next to you – they may stay by your side the whole time or they may take you in a direction that you didn’t expect but they won’t fix all your problems, experience it the same way as you or take the steps that you need to take.
