Book excerpt: Let's face it, all of us children of absent parents have thought about it at some point - how will I feel when they're actually dead? Will I be bothered? Will it screw me up even further? Will I even be told? Will I go to the funeral? I'd thought about it many, many times in the 28 years my dad had been absent from my life and I'd come to the conclusion I was totally over it already and wouldn't actually give a shit. But, after the initial phone call came to tell me he was dead, I cried. I cried real, heavy, sobbing tears. Painful ones. I wasn't ready for this pain. This was a lot of buried pain hitting some fresh new pain and it was combining to make a big old painful mess. This was my first indication that my emotions were just not going to do what I thought they would, and I was in for a bumpy ride. This book is my story of my grief, combined with wisdom I've learned though being a bereavement counsellor. My intention is that you don't feel alone with your grief, that you'll give yourself permission to feel however you feel, you won't question your sanity, and that you'll also be able to release your grief.
