In Don’t Give Me Any Grief, Cathy Pendola reflects on the thoughts and feelings that filled her days following the sudden death of her nineteen-year-old son Dominic. Surreal experiences such as picking out his funeral clothes and the heartache of cleaning his room for the first time are explored fearlessly and poetically in the hopes that her journey through loss will provide a path for other parents who know the same pain.
Countering grief-speak words including “closure” and “new normal,” and frankly declaring there will never be an answer to the question "why," Pendola’s stories and poems make room for grief—hers and yours—and by doing so, invite the possibility of hope and healing.
Don't Give Me Any Grief One mother journey in the loss of a child edition by Catherine Pendola Health Fitness Dieting eBooks
This memoir of a child lost tragically was very difficult for me to read as I have two friends who have lost their young adult children recently. There were some very sweet shared moments of their family life and beautiful poems that I felt were very personal to the author. Having said that, and as a mother, I would have shared this memoir with family members and close friends only. I was hoping this book might help or enlighten those I know who have been through the devastating loss of a child but I'm not sure I will share this book with them at this time. Prayers to the Pendola family and all families who have experienced the tragic loss of a child. May God bless them and bring them peace.Product details
