- Notes
- This book "explores all facets of the `great secret', naming the grief, affirming the loss of a child, and recognizing the wounding furtiveness often suffered by parents. Bruce Pierce, a chaplain at the Toronto General Hospital and formerly the Church of Ireland chaplain at the Adelaide and Meath Hospital in Dublin, has extensively researched the subject of this comprehensive book, which is simple (but not simplistic), readable, and comforting. It should be used by all healthcare providers, pastoral counselors, and clergy. Most importantly, it will be helpful to families in their journeys of grief".
