Produktbeschreibung
In May of 2004, the body of Donaleen Saul's 54-year-old brother, Steve, was found in the cab of his truck in a gravel pit near Kindersley, Saskatchewan. The cause of his death was as unambiguous as its impact: "Despite our fractured and unexplored relationship, or perhaps because of it, losing my brother to suicide has been the biggest heartbreak of my life." A professional writer who has found lifelong solace in journal-writing, this book, Did You Know I Would Miss You? - The Transformative Journey of the Suicide Survivor became Donaleen's place of refuge in the soul storm arising from this shattering event. Did You Know I Would Miss You? traces Donaleen's journey of transformation from Steve's grief-stricken sister to his life-affirming ally in a relationship that she describes as "an ongoing connection with someone who has expanded beyond the suffering that informed so much of his life." Did You Know I Would Miss You? offers hope and healing to all suicide survivors, supports siblings whose grief is often overlooked and whose suicide risk is significantly greater than the rest of the population, and shares the many ways to not only live on but to live well after profound loss.
