The Gift of Loss is the story of a child whose very life was nothing short of a miracle, and whose death changed his family in profound and unexpected ways. “The death of a child at 8 months is a tragedy beyond comprehension. The grief threatens to destroy one’s very Soul….and yet….and yet…we can travel to this very dark place, stay there, and eventually come out of it with a renewed depth of the gift that is Life. I read The Gift of Loss in several hours. It’s full of raw emotion, authentic pain, looking death in the face, and looking grief in the face. Why would you want to read it then? Because it engages you in life, it engages you in the hells that life can present and after that, it offers the heaven that life can also present. It overflows with humanity and the wisdom of experience. I highly recommend this book. It will nourish your Soul, it will give you the gift of humble, quiet, gratitude.” - Martin Rutte Co-Author, Chicken Soup for the Soul at Work Founder, ProjectHeavenOnEarth.com
