Things I Wish I Knew Before My Mom Died

Coping with Loss Every Day

De: Ty Alexander, Tia Williams - foreward

Narrado por: Janina Edwards, Myra Lucretia Taylor

The grieving process: Ty Alexander of Gorgeous in Grey is one of the top bloggers today. She has a tremendous personal connection with her listeners. This is never more apparent than when she speaks about her mother. The pain of loss is universal. Yet, we all grieve differently.

For Alexander, the grieving process is one that she lives with day-to-day. Learning from her pain, Alexander connects with her listeners on a deeply emotional level in her debut audiobook Things I Wish I Knew before My Mom Died: Coping with Loss Every Day. From grief counseling to sharing insightful true stories, Alexander offers comfort, reassurance, and hope in the face of sorrow.

Coping with loss: In her early 20s reality smacked Ty in the face. She was ill-equipped to deal with the emotional and intellectual rollercoaster of dealing with her mom's illness. Through her own trial and error, she found a way to be a caregiver, patient advocate, researcher, and a grieving daughter. She wrote Things I Wish I Knew before My Mom Died: Coping with Loss Every Day to help others find the "best" way to cope and move on; however, one personally decides what that means.

Mourning and remembrance: In the chapters of this soul-touching audiobook, mourners will find meaning and wisdom in grieving and the love that will always remain. Each chapter is a study and lesson in coping with loss:

• Chapter 1: We've been duped, everyone dies!
• Chapter 2: When fragmented families grieve
• Chapter 3: The art of losing
• Chapter 4: The how of grieving
• Chapter 5: How to be obsessively grateful
• Chapter 6: Things every mother should tell her daughter
• Chapter 7: Dear Mommy

This book. THIS BOOK!
I never knew there was a way to cope with this never ending pain of losing my mother 4 years ago. This book liberated me, and made me wanna love endlessly, with the price to pay being death. Everything she says, touches me in ways I can’t even begin to feel explain...

Very uplifting & supportive

A must listen to for anyone grieving. So powerful & uplifting. It is comforting to know I'm not alone with how I'm feeling most days.
