Abstract "Parents who suffer the death of a child are overwhelmed, often immobilized by the depth and scope of their grief. When a Child Dies is written in a simple, straightforward manner, offering information, comfort and hope for those who believe that none is possible. Claire Aagaard has written this book from a unique perspective-that of a professional grief counselor and as a parent with her own history of child loss. It is an honest yet gentle guide, offering the wisdom from her own personal journey as well as that of countless others"-- Provided by publisher.
