This is a vulnerable retelling of the tragic death of a son and a father's journey to integrate this heart-wrenching loss into his life. Through this relatable story you will discover universal themes that are relevant to all kinds of grief, not just the loss of a child. Along the way, you will gain insight into what it looks like to learn how to live after a devastating loss and compassionately care for those who are grieving.
Amidst the pain and sorrow of the loss of his son, Ed Lee, is forced to discover what moving forward looks like. He is open and honest about his experience, sharing his struggles and what he has found to be helpful. This is not a story he ever wanted to tell, but knowing how difficult of a journey it has been, he presses past his resistance to talk about these things, hoping it will help others who have experienced similar losses.
He is not writing as an expert who has been trained in grief. He is a father who knows what it feels like to be tossed about by waves of grief and disbelief which follow the death of a child. He understands the frustration of unanswerable questions, and the temptation to numb the pain. He also knows how important it is to not take these waves alone, and that there is help to be found.
Ed has experienced what it is like to get up after being knocked down by a crushing wave, and if you have lost someone you love, he hopes this book will help you do the same. If you are a friend of someone who has lost a loved one, he hopes this book will help you understand what they are going through and how you can come alongside them.
