I have always felt like this way through my own grief of loosing 4 babies. I can understand why people do give up though. I remember telling my psychologist after my 3rd loss that I didn’t want to die, rather close my eyes and take a break. The world keeps spinning even when your world has stopped.

Great post, Beth!

Hi Kristy, first of all thank you for your insightful comment. Your losses have been very profound and heartbreaking. Everyone has grief hit them at some time or other. One can only do the best they can in life just to get through it. I have often returned to this book for comfort during my dark times.

Getting through life is so much more reliant on the mental than the physical. Sounds like a great book. Thanks for sharing your insights from it.
