1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money, Sep 3 2003
By A Customer
This short - about 60 half size pages - is really just a religious tract. Wasn't helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Short book packed with good information, Jul 11 2003
By Ann Atkinson "Anntnwv" (Antioch, TN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Good Grief by Granger E. Westberg is a book that is cheap ... and short (64 pages) which I was able to read in one afternoon. It is packed with good information. Pages 24 and 24:::Even though a person does come out of the initial shock, he will undoubtedly experience times in the succeeding days and months when the unreality of the loss comes over him again. Every now and then he will say,"I just can't believe it has happened. Intellectually I know it did happen, but I guess I just have not really accepted it emotionally." For all of us the biggest hurdle is "accepting it emotionally."

This is what I am dealing with sometimes even after 11 months of living through the completed suicide of my fiance, Bob. I accept it on one point but sometimes it hits me temporarily for a few moments and it is hard to accept. The online web sites help too - groww.org, 1000deaths.com, survivorsofsuicide.com, and online support groups and SOS in person meetings.
