Sighs & Goodbyes

Journaling from Grief to Grace

By: Sara Achatz

Narrated by: Sara A. Achatz

After losing her 17-year-old daughter in a car accident, Sara began writing. Her words exposed the wounds that only others who experience seismic grief can truly understand. Laying bare the emotional and spiritual sojourn in the days and weeks that followed, she gives listeners a glimpse at the challenges and revelations of a life after tragedy.

Sighs and Goodbyes follows this sometimes-winding path through the dark early days of despair, leading to the comforting arms of a father who understands and is waiting. Grief is never the predictable journey we want it to be. Its ending is elusive, and the sharp pain of loss often can be just a photograph or sticky note away.

In sharing these raw journal entries after her loss, the author also provides a light to those who also may find themselves struggling to find their way in grief. And although some questions may never be answered, grace can always be found along the way.

Heartfelt and genuine

What a breathtaking way to navigate grief! To hear it told first hand by the author was indescribable. Grace touched and changed so many lives while she was here on this earth and now, along with her mother, she will continue to bless and change lives forever! We just need to follow the trail of glitter she left behind so that one day we will be with her again in the Kingdom of Heaven! Thank you Sara for sharing her with all of us!
