Sibling Grief: Healing After the Death of a Sister or Brother


Description

An expert offers advice, based on personal experience, for those who have lost a sibling. When the author's child reached the age her sister had been when she died-from a rare form of cancer-her grief suddenly resurged. However, White struggled to find a counselor who could offer her the support she needed to heal. During the next several years, the author strived to understand what she was feeling, returned to school and became a counselor herself. On one anniversary of her sister's death, she posted a website called The Sibling Connection, which has grown into a non profit organization providing resources and counseling for bereaved siblings. In this slim but thorough volume, White outlines the specific ways in which losing a sibling as an infant, a young child, an adolescent, a college student or as an adult can often impact an individual. Countering the common theories about grief derived from Elisabeth Kubler-Ross's stages of dying, the author dismisses the idea that one must work toward letting the deceased go. Rather, she takes the intriguing approach of encouraging bereaved siblings to follow a five-step process that allows for a continued connection with the deceased...She further examines factors that influence grief, and offers specific suggestions for recovery. The author concludes the book with an extensive bibliography of works relevant to loss of a sibling, providing readers with resources that will enable them to take that first step toward healing. Sibling Grief is particularly effective because White's expertise is derived as much from her professional work and research as it is from her experience as a bereaved sister. A worthy resource for those mourning a sibling or others.-Kirkus Discoveries

His name is Father Laforgue, a young Jesuit missionary come from Europe to the New Sibling Grief: Healing After the Death of a Sister or Brother ebook pdf World to bring the word of God to the heathen. He is given minimal aid by the governor of the vast territory that is proudly named New France but is in reality still ruled by the Huron, Iroquois, and Algonkin tribes who have roamed it since the dawn of time and whom the French call Savages. His mission is to reach and bring salvation to an isolatied Huron tribe decimated by disease in the far north before incoming winter closes off his path to them. His guides are a group of Savages who mock his faith and their pledges even as they accept muskets as their payment.Father Laforgue is about to enter a world of pagan power and sexual license, awesome courage and terrible cruelty, that will test him to the breaking point as both a man and a priest, and alter him in ways he cannot dream.In weaving a tautly suspenseful tale of physical and spiritual adventure in a wilderness frontier on the cusp of change, Brian Moore has written a novel that rivals Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness in its exploration of the confrontation between Western ideology and native peoples, and its meditation upon Good and Evil in the human heart.
