Unthinkable. Unbelievable. Heartbreaking.
Whatever words we choose, they all fall far short of the reality. The loss of a child is a terrible thing.
How do you survive this? Can you?
Multiple award-winning author, hospice chaplain, and grief specialist Gary Roe uses his three decades of experience interacting with grieving parents to give us this heartfelt, easy-to-read, and intensely practical book. In Shattered, Roe walks the reader through the powerful impact a child's death can have - emotionally, mentally, physically, relationally, and spiritually.
Shattered unpacks the depth of this loss, describing how...
-Intense, unpredictable emotions can hijack us at a moment's notice.
-Our minds spin. We can't concentrate. It feels like we're going crazy.
-Our bodies get hit. Symptoms surface. Our health can be impacted.
-Our souls feel crushed. Guilt shakes us. What we believe gets challenged.
-Our relationships change. Marriage, family, friendships, and workplaces feel the impact.

Yes, the loss of a child affects everything.
In Shattered, you will discover how you can...
