Product Description
by C. a. Blake (Author)
Author C.A. Blake was twenty-four years old when her brother, Steve, committed suicide. She struggled with feeling she wouldn't survive the pain of it. Blake grew up at a time when few coping skills were taught or offered, so she traveled the path of suffering alone. In Those Left Behind, she shares her story, telling how the tragic suicide left an empty hole where a life had been. She wasn't sure she'd emerge from the dark shadow of the event. At the time, suicide wasn't a popular subject, and there was little understanding or professional help available for those left behind. Blake speaks to those struck by sudden, often-unexpected losses and offers hope to the many who share similar circumstances. Many who have been left behind still wander in the shadows of their losses without a sense they can carry on. In Those Left Behind, however, Blake communicates you can move forward. You are stronger and more courageous than you think. Trust yourself, and you'll move through the paralyzing pain. The love of your loved one will always remain with you.
