Stillbirth and Newborn Death

'Death and Life are the Same Mysteries'

Paperback, 48 pages.

Introduction

"Grief can be a shattering experience. It may leave
an ache which is always there but at the same time it can
reveal things about ourselves, make us reassess the things
that matter and get a new perspective on life. And in a strange
way the loss gives something and does not only take away."
