Lights for the Path

A guide for young people on how to cope with the loss of a loved one. Learning that someone you love is dying, attending a funeral, adjusting to life without a parent, sibling, or friend, can leave you feeling very alone. This book offers comfort, by bringing together the stories of people who have experienced loss and can offer advice on how they managed. A manual that can be consulted at any time, it draws on the expertise of doctors, counsellors, authors and others, to shed light on difficult topics, from what happens in a hospice, to whether it's okay to laugh at a funeral, to why God allows people to suffer. It also draws on the author's own experience of losing a parent as a child. An ultimately hopeful book that draws on the wisdom of the Christian faith, it shows that, while life will never be the same, there are paths through grief, to new life.
