A Message from the author

We will experience loss in many ways, both big and small, throughout our lifetimes. What if loss didn’t just happen to us? What if it led us to our compassion, understanding, and empathy? I believe it is one of our greatest teachers and if not shut down has the power to lead us to the depth of who we are.

Children most often have little to no frame of reference when it comes to loss in their lives. By giving them and the adults in their lives a gentle way to begin the conversation takes this very natural and normal human experience out of the shadows and into the light where connection and healing can happen.

Children have been called “the forgotten grievers.” I am their advocate. Join me.
