Two grieving sisters offer hope and support while you navigate your grief.
Living with Sibling Grief: Imagining a Way Forward is about Earla and Monica, two grief buddies who experienced the sudden death of a sibling and eventually created a way to navigate their profound grief. They share experiences while advocating for a societal change surrounding grief literacy. "We wrote the book we wished we’d had in the early days of grieving our sisters. We are telling our stories to inspire you to tell yours."
Feeling like the forgotten mourners as siblings are often labelled in the grief literature, they write as supportive siblings telling their story by illustrating what peer support can look like as sibling grief buddies. This book is like a friend sharing their experience with another friend. Living with Sibling Grief: Imagining a Way Forward is about empowering yourself when ready. Their stories convey messages that cannot be expressed by words alone, using light-hearted illustrations for a heavy topic.
Living With Sibling Grief: Imagining a Way Forward offers:
interviews validate the shared understanding of siblings
ways to continue a bond with your loved one
GPS points with each chapter to support steps of your process
extensive current resources specific to adult siblings
"We intended to share what we learned in time; siblings may have similar traits as brothers and sisters, yet all grieve uniquely. Their six stories may be helpful for siblings in their early days of grieving when feeling alone and misunderstood."
