This book is a gift to the world!! It is a guide book of how to deal with grief, all kinds of grief from sadness to heart breaking, gut wrenching grief!! Micah was here for only a VERY short time but is STILL blessing and touching lives through the strength of his parents! I believe that Eric and Jenna two of the bravest people I've met! Eric is a wonderful writer and proves that in "It's Okay to Yell at God". This book is for ANYONE, religious or not. I remember when Micah died I thought... "How could God let this happen to such a beautiful couple where the light of Christ burns so bright!!" I didn't realize how much grief I felt for the loss of Micah and how much anger I stuffed away until I read Eric's book and it guided me through understanding Micah's passing and my own losses in my life. This book is for Everyone! Another thing that touched me while reading this book is that there are different types of grief that we go through in life, some are profound and life changing, and some are temporary like saying goodbye to my husband when he'd go off to Sea. This book is for ANYONE and EVERYONE!
Wikipedia definition of grief.
GRIEF IS - a natural response to loss. It is the emotional suffering one feels when something or someone the individual loves is taken away.[1] Grief is also a reaction to any loss. The grief associated with death is familiar to most people, but individuals grieve in connection with a variety of losses throughout their lives, such as unemployment, ill health or the end of a relationship.[2] Loss can be categorized as either physical or abstract,[3] the physical loss being related to something that the individual can touch or measure, such as losing a spouse through death, while other types of loss are abstract, and relate to aspects of a person’s social interactions.[4]
