Sample Book Insights:

#1 The joy-filled way in which we come to share each other’s minds is the hallmark of love. It is the link between parent and child that is the signature of love.

#2 During Leanne’s next visit, I asked her parents what had changed. Barbara replied that she had lost her soul. I asked her what that felt like, and she said it felt fine. She didn’t know if she could explain any more than that.

#3 When I saw the children without their mother, they let me know how they felt. She just doesn’t care about us like she used to, Leanne said. And she doesn’t ever ask us anything about ourselves, Amy added with sadness and irritation.

#4 Grief allows you to let go of something you’ve lost only when you begin to accept what you now have in its place. As your mind clings to the familiar, to your established expectations, you can become trapped in feelings of disappointment, confusion, and anger.
