## Description

How to Survive the Loss of a Parent is a powerful, healing message for anyone going through or preparing for inevitable loss. Many people who usually function well are thrown for a loop when a parent dies. They're surprised at the complex feelings of love, loss, anger, and guilt, and at the unresolved issues that emerge. Therapist Lois F. Akner explains why the loss of a parent is different from other losses and, using examples from her experience, shows how it is possible to work through the grief.

Review: It's amazing. Although I didn't have a lot of the ... - A coworker gave this book to me when I lost a parent. It's amazing. Although I didn't have a lot of the issues discussed in the book (e.g., unfinished business or a damaged relationship you weren't able to reconcile), the things discussed were very relevant to me as I went through the grieving process. It applies to much more than surviving the loss of a parent. It applies to losing anyone close to you, or maybe I should say anyone who "should" have been close to you. For folks who had things they were never able to say or relationships they were never able to reconcile, it gives concrete ideas on what you can do to find closure. It's now the book I recommend to my friends as we start to go through this stage of life (i.e., losing parents).
Review: Much needed. - My mom died about 6 months ago, and I didn’t realize how badly I wanted to relate to someone about what it is like every day until this book came along. This is the least alone I’ve felt in a while, and I am so appreciative.

I really enjoyed this and thought it was not only good for the grieving the loss of a parent but also for lessons on family dynamics in general. Quick read and helpful information.
