Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GRIEF-has no rules and in many ways, it will last as long as love does. ForeverJULY IS BEREAVED PARENTS [awareness] MONTH.Approximately 73,000 children under the age of 18 die each year in the US which makes hundreds of thousands of grieving parents. However, in volume 8 of this collection, we are going to be honoring the grandparents who have experienced the loss of a grandchild. Grandparents, "the forgotten grievers" coined the term because although they are doubly grieved by the ache for their grandchild and pain of their own child are often overlooked along with the support needed. Usually, this exclusion is not intentional-grandparents are simply overlooked in all the turmoil. Please be mindful of grieving grandparents and offer support wherever you can. So what is a grief journal? A grief journal records the experience of grief, which has therapeutic qualities. The journal provides a venue for expression without fear of judgment, which also helps reconstruct the personal self narrative, which is critical in the healing process. Some people say that writing through their grief was the only way they were able to cope after their child had died. Writing daily for approx. 15-20min. is all it takes to begin the healing process.Whether you or someone you know has recently lost a child, or it was a while ago- the benefits of writing through the grief remain the same. This grief journal is part of a series titled: July is Bereaved Parents Month and is dedicated in loving memory to, Claire Alyse. There is never a footprint too small to leave an imprint on this world and at 5yrs young, Claire's were no exception.Journal Details: 6x9- compact size fits in most bags and ideal for on-the-go 110 pages- lined Printing- Using the most up-to-date/current techniques, the cover is printed with a matte finish and the paper is superior quality with bleed resistant technology Cover Design- Created by the design team at BOLDconcepts. Committed to designing tasteful and unique low content (diaries, planners, journals and notebooks)books. Having a heart for people, their motto speaks to the integrity of the company: "publish for a purpose" Gifts for bereaved parents- grief journals (grief journaling) make great gifts for the bereaved. Don't forget the teens and kids! Grief journals for teens and grief journals for kids are included in the series collection! *Make sure the people you know who've lost a child that there are support groups for grieving parents and their families! Please join us in raising awareness of the support necessary for parents and their families who have experienced the death of a child. Family/friend support can make a big difference. Do you know someone (a friend, co-worker, or family member) who has lost a child? Try to give them a helping hand. Sharing your love and support with them may help heal the wounded hearts of grieving parents.For the rest of this series and for other great titles, head over to the Amazon Author Page for Deena Cunningham and please, leave a review!

This book was released on 2013 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exploratory, qualitative study aimed to describe the grief-related experiences and support needs of grandparents when dealing with the death, disability or terminal illness of grandchildren. Three focus groups were held: the participants in two were grandparents who had been bereaved by the death of a grandchild, and the participants in the other were grandparents who had a grandchild with a disability or terminal illness. One participant who was unable to attend a focus group was interviewed individually. This small study found that when a child is seriously disabled, ill or dies, often grandparents are seen as part of the support system for the parents and siblings of the child, but their grief and disempowerment in the situation in which they are not usually the decision makers can be hard to bear. It was found that the grief experienced by grandparents can be complex and multi-dimensional as it can be complicated by a number of factors, including: having to support their children and other grandchildren in their grief; grieving for them, while grieving for themselves; and the loss of their dream of a future where their grandchild could have a full and healthy life. Recommendations for further research and what can be done to help these disenfranchised or forgotten grievers are discussed.

Book excerpt: Grandparenting: Contemporary Perspectives is one of the first books of its kind to offer a dedicated account of the social and psychological research on this important life stage. Reflecting the contemporary positive approach to ageing, it covers many of the issues that impact the grandparent experience today, such as care-giving and changing family structures, to reveal the health and wellbeing benefits of the grandparent role. It examines biological, psychological, social/ familial, gender, cultural and economic dimensions to map out the current landscape in this emerging field. Moore and Rosenthal draw on quantitative and qualitative, experimental, survey, observation and case study research, including unique data on grandfathers. They examine how people respond to the challenges and possibilities of grandparenting, and how this influences intergenerational relationships and adapting to growing older. The book provides a comprehensive, up-to-date evidence base for students in health, sociology and psychology and those interested in gerontology and the lifespan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original, authoritative guide to the impact of grief on the brain, the heart, and the body of the bereaved Grief happens to everyone. Universal and enveloping, grief cannot be ignored or denied. This original new book by psychologist Dorothy P. Holinger uses humanistic and physiological approaches to describe grief’s impact on the bereaved. Taking examples from literature, music, poetry, paleoarchaeology, personal experience, memoirs, and patient narratives, Holinger describes what happens in the brain, the heart, and the body of the bereaved. Readers will learn what grief is like after a loved one dies: how language and clarity of thought become elusive, why life feels empty, why grief surges and ebbs so persistently, and why the bereaved cry. Resting on a scientific foundation, this literary book shows the bereaved how to move through the grieving process and how understanding grief in deeper, more multidimensional ways can help quell this sorrow and allow life to be lived again with joy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now, the church has been unaware of the need for ministry to those suffering from pregnancy loss. At a time when approximately one in four pregnancies ends in loss, the need to understand and provide caring ministry is painfully obvious. Pastoral Care in Pregnancy Loss introduces the religious community to the issue of pregnancy loss and describes the ministries that can be helpful to those who experience these tragedies. Effective ministry in pregnancy loss requires that one develop basic life theories in order to prepare for such in-depth care. Thus, the book is more than a “how to” as it explores why there is suffering and why some suffer more than others, how to find grace when God seems far away, how to minister when we don’t have answers, and how religious ministry can consistently work with other helping professionals in support of the individual. With the foundation of ministry theory provided by Pastoral Care in Pregnancy Loss, you can help your faith community develop strategies for ministry to those suffering from pregnancy loss. Numerous case studies illustrate what is usually done wrong in providing pastoral care in these difficult and delicate situations and explain why those who experience loss may blame themselves, why they may blame God, and why they may not feel able to return to church. Providing helpful insight to hospital pastoral care departments, church libraries, funeral directors, counselors and psychologists, nursing and obstetrics professionals, and seminaries with a marriage and family ministry specialty, this book provides readers with information about: three types of pregnancy loss--miscarriage, still birth, and neonatal loss church outreach the grieving process victims as “consenters” or “experiencers” the spiritual needs of those suffering loss practical ministries crisis support and long-term support. Pastoral Care in Pregnancy Loss furthers your understanding of pregnancy loss by enumerating theories on how suffering and loss are viewed by those suffering--either as a time of testing, a time of training, a mystery of God, a sign of punishment and warning, or as having no meaning. The book also shows how pregnancy loss affects five different types of personal relationships and discusses both immediate and long-term concerns of providing pastoral care. From helping the victim find meaning or reason for the loss to providing support in preparing for future pregnancies, this book provides much-needed guidance to an often-neglected ministry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and expanded from four to five volumes, this new edition of the Handbook of Parenting appears at a time that is momentous in the history of parenting. Parenting and the family are today in a greater state of flux, question, and redefinition than perhaps ever before. We are witnessing the emergence of striking permutations on the theme of parenting: blended families, lesbian and gay parents, and teen versus fifties first-time moms and dads. One cannot but be awed on the biological front by technology that now not only renders postmenopausal women capable of childbearing, but also presents us with the possibility of designing babies. Similarly on the sociological front, single parenthood is a modern day fact of life, adult child dependency is on the rise, and parents are ever less certain of their own roles, even in the face of rising environmental and institutional demands that they take increasing responsibility for their offspring. The Handbook of Parenting concerns itself with: *different types of parents--mothers and fathers, single, adolescent, and adoptive parents; *basic characteristics of parenting--behaviors, knowledge, beliefs, and expectations about parenting; *forces that shape parenting--evolution, genetics, biology, employment, social class, culture, environment, and history; *problems faced by parents--handicap, marital difficulties, drug addiction; and *practical concerns of parenting--how to promote children's health, foster social adjustment and cognitive competence, and interact with school, legal, and public officials. Contributors to the Handbook of Parenting have worked in different ways toward understanding all these diverse aspects of parenting, and all look to the most recent research and thinking in the field to shed light on many topics every parent wonders about. Each chapter addresses a different but central topic in parenting; each is rooted in current thinking and theory, as well as classical and modern research in that topic; each has been written to be read and absorbed in a single sitting. In addition, each chapter follows a standard organization, including an introduction to the chapter as a whole, followed by historical considerations of the topic, a discussion of central issues and theory, a review of classical and modern research, forecasts of future directions of theory and research, and a set of conclusions. Of course, contributors' own convictions and research are considered, but contributions to this new edition present all major points of view and central lines of inquiry and interpret them broadly. The Handbook of Parenting is intended to be both comprehensive and state of the art. As the expanded scope of this second edition amply shows, parenting is naturally and closely allied with many other fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most devastating losses a family can experience is the loss of a child. Whether the loss is through illness, accident, drugs, suicide, or other tragedy, the pain is overwhelming and often paralyzing. Often we think of "loss" as death. However, in our broken world there are many ways to suffer the loss of a child. This book discusses how a family can learn to cope with loss of a child due not only to death, but also to a custody battle, addiction (and other choices a child makes), chronic illness, crime (human trafficking, kidnap), and other issues where hopes and dreams disappear. Wright helps readers through the grieving process and assists them in finding God's grace and comfort during this very difficult time of life. This book is unique as it is for parents as well as grandparents.
