Summary: Real
Review: I was encouraged by Rebecca's "realness". She spoke from her heart and allowed her true feelings to reach out to others who might not have the courage to express their own feelings. I was impressed that she shared ALL her feelings no matter how rational or irrational they were. Thanks Rebecca!

Summary: A Mother's Grief Observed
Review: In June of 2000 my mother and oldest son were killed in an automobile accident. My world shattered. I went to grief counseling for many months. My counselor recommended that I read books written by other parents who had lost a child. This is one of the first ones I purchased. I found that I had experienced many of the same things this mother had. It helped me so much to understand what my husband, children, and I were going through. This is a wonderful book, and I recommend it highly.

Summary: Friends need this to understand the loss
Review: Rebecca Flair lost her son in a pool drowning and recounts every painful detail of that day. It's a heartwrenching story, often too unbearable to read at one setting. But she is honest, truthful and painfully poignant about her feelings.What I love about her book, is that she goes through her journal and relives the loss through emotionally raw feelings, then filters it enough to explain to someone else. All too often, grief books are written as though the pain is so little and bearable. Those having experienced such a loss know this to be untrue. That is why books of this caliber are so important, they reach out to those that have truly lost and show them they are not alone. Alyice
