This book helped me and my friends deal with grief and loss.

A grief counselor lent me this book to read and I bought it after so I could reread and reflect on myself. The story helps with understanding the ebb and flow of grief in life and accepting it. It also helps others understand that everyone needs time to deal with grief and some days, it's stronger than others. I learned to be patient with myself and others and to accept the bittersweet memories that come and go. I also gift this book to those in need. My friends have found solace in this story. Thank you continuing to carry this book. It's very hard to find in book stores.
