Many times people are uncomfortable around those who have experienced a deep and painful loss, even if they are friends. For the one who has endured the loss it is a pain filled and halting process to arrive at a place where you can speak at all and harder still to speak of the loss. There lies within all of us that inner child who says if you don't say it maybe it won't be real. Trauma creates a strong bond; nothing can be as traumatic as having someone you love ripped from your life. Sharing is a healing experience for all. There is nothing so profound as the tears that fall from our hearts. Yet these are the healing balm applied by a loving Creator to begin the process of mending a broken heart. 'Miss You Like Crazy' is a wonderful book with stand alone chapters that forge a path through the pain and the changes that seem fraught with peril into a new normal after losing someone you genuinely loved. It delivers a shared hug and the assurance that awful things can be bearable.
