The loss of a baby is one of the most acute losses a person can experience. In this helpful book, Louis A. Gamino and Ann Taylor Cooney address both miscarriage and stillbirth and the grief implications of each. They offer comfort to mothers, fathers, and families who must find ways to recognise their bond with the child who died and then move forward with their lives.

The loss of a child is something no parent is prepared to face. Drawing on her experience as a counsellor, Theresa Huntley gives grieving parents tools to begin to cope with this devastating loss. She discusses the difficult task of mourning and the different ways of grieving. Huntley also reveals how the magnitude of the loss will affect parents' other relationships.

Talking with a grieving child may put a parent at a loss for words. In this brief guide, Theresa Huntley leads parents through a child's grief process, including how to talk with children about death, how children grieve, what steps parents should take to help children work through their grief, and how parents can recognize the stages of grief throughout children's lives.
