Author Kate McGahan brings 35 years of clinical hospice experience and end of life social work into this uniquely powerful life-changing book. Compassion, deep empathy, insight and understanding fill this healing book to the rim with substance, spirituality and love. Her empathy allows her to be The Voice of your Beloved throughout the book. Child to Parent, Parent to Child, Spouse to Spouse, Friend to Friend, this book can be read in advance, during or after death. The sooner the better so that you can rise up in faith and are best prepared for what is to come. From early prognosis through the actual dying process and beyond, this book will help the grieving reader to open their mind and heart to all the possibilities in the afterlife. Allow yourself to be guided through the 5 stages of grief ( per Elisabeth Kubler Ross ). Learn to communicate with your loved one in new ways as you work together to get through the grief, keeping the power of love at the forefront. This book applies to anyone grieving the loss of anyone, no matter where they are in the dying process. It's written in a simple language so even young children can benefit from reading it. Life is too short -and too long- to live under the cloud of heavy grief. There is no “right way” to grieve. There is no “wrong way” to grieve. There is only YOUR way. Empower yourself with the guidance given in this book and you will find your way out of the grief and back into the power of a love that never dies.
