Grief is an emotion and sad feeling that the whole of humanity can connect with. We can all agree that at some stage in our lives we have lost somebody we loved, or somebody close to us. We can all understand that deep sadness that grief leaves behind and agree that we feel shock, disbelief and sadness.
A place that was once filled with love, laughter, and life from a physical being, is now just an empty space that echoes silence of which once stood the person you cared about so dearly. On a cold November morning in 2016 my life changed forever when my first grandson David died. The loss of a child shocked me to the core of my soul. It felt like I had all the life sucked out of me at that very moment in time. The Missing Piece, Coping with Grief, was for me the most challenging book to write and compile together with other co-authors from around the world. However, what I do know is by sharing how we coped with our grief will help others have a ray of light even in their darkest of days.
