From Grief to Gratitude...

About the Book

The emotional and mental stress caused by the loss of a loved one ranges from traumatic to a sense of relief. So often the severity is increased by the sudden nature of the loss or by the intimacy of the relationship with the deceased.

Carey has experienced the full range. He has lost three wives to cancer, his younger and only brother, his oldest son and three of his closest friends.

In this book Carey describes his responses and the coping strategies he has learned in the process.

Anyone concerned with or dealing with the loss of a loved one will gain from reading this book. It will provide a solid perspective and some effective “field-tested” ideas you can utilize to make your “PASSAGE THROUGH FEAR TO FULFILLMENT” an enriching experience.
