Today I’m excited, grateful, and honored to receive this gold from Sara Eddy, counselor extraordinaire here in Texas.
In her words: 10/10 recommend your book; it turned out so great!
I’m loving this idea of a stitch map to show people in our care that grief can be messy, just like a knotted up piece of thread, and that it’s a process, just like knitting a pair of slippers or a scarf, from the initial cast on until the end-of-project bind off.
Ah, the knitting metaphor: I an enamored with the idea of discussing the spectrum of grief from its potential to unravel us to its gift for us to revisit, reattach, and eventually restitch our lives as we move forward into our new normal.
This makes my heart so happy, that Sara would share these incredible story-stretching resources with us.
In case you want a hardcover copy, it’s available now at Barnes & Noble online.
