Aprašymas

-A compassionate guide to navigating the unique and often overlooked grief that accompanies the loss of an adult sibling, now with an updated introduction, afterword, and more resources

When T.J. Wray lost her forty-three-year-old brother, her grief was deep and enduring and, she soon discovered, not fully acknowledged. Despite the longevity of adult sibling relationships, surviving siblings are often made to feel as if their grief is somehow unwarranted. After all, when an adult sibling dies, he or she often leaves behind parents, a spouse, or children—all of whom suffer a more socially recognized type of loss.

Based on the author's own experiences, as well as those of many others, this trusted resource helps adults who have lost a sibling realize that they are not alone in their struggle. Just as important, it teaches them to understand the unique stages of their grieving process, offering practical and prescriptive advice for dealing with each stage. Now updated with more resources and recent statistics, it covers:

• Searching for and finding meaning in your sibling’s passing
• Using a grief journal to record your emotions
• Choosing a grief partner to help you through tough times
• Dealing with insensitive remarks made by others
