A propos du livre

Book Description

Nine years of happy marriage..and suddenly death snatches a husband, leaving a wife too stunned to cry. It takes time to mend--time to do the "grief work" psychologists tell us must be done in order to feel whole again. When Dorothy Hsu's husband died, she found comfort and healing in pouring her feelings out on paper that reflected the stages of her grief. Here is a unique volume that carries the reader from tragedy to triumph, proving once again that God's grace is sufficient in every kind of need.

Daddy's Dead

How do you say, "Daddy's dead"?
How do you tell your little girls?
It's not something you practice.

I just gathered them round,
Put my arms around them both and said,
"Jesus took daddy home."
Remember when daddy went to
Denver and Boston? Well,
He's taken another trip.
This time he won't come back...
But he's waiting for us.

Rachel sobs.
"How can I sleep tonight
since daddy's dead?"
Missy's silent. No response-
She's older. It stikes her deeper.
Another day she'll cry.
Simple, isn't it?
To tell your girls that
Daddy's dead.
