When faced with a grieving co-worker, friend, or loved one, we're often at a loss for the right words or doubt our ability to comfort them. In Healing: The Essential Guide to Helping Others Overcome Grief and Loss, Alicia King combines her own wisdom and that of others who have "been there" to offer good advice for those who feel helpless when it comes to helping the bereaved. Included here are:

The best ways to get involved on behalf of the grief-stricken
20 ways to pay tribute to the beloved
How to care for young children in grief
Interviews and advice from those who have suffered a loss
10 things never to say

Alicia King writes from the unique perspective of one who has lost many of those close to her. Her mother's death was suspicious enough to launch a homicide investigation and lengthy legal roller coaster. This ultimately led to a sentence of more than 15 years for her mother's boyfriend. During the next eight years she would lose her grandmother, stepfather, stepmother, and father, as well as miscarrying while awaiting her mother's boyfriend's trial. Ms. King currently lives in Franklin, Tennessee, with her husband, Dan, and their two children. She is an award-winning songwriter, writing mostly for film and TV.
