The second edition of Letters to My Son is even more powerful than the first edition, with many more pages of valuable insights into the griever's journey. This edition also contains many more of the author's evocative pencil illustrations. This moving exploration of the process of grieving is authored by a father whose nine year- old son died following a two-year battle with a recurring malignant brain tumor. During the months that followed his son's death, the author wrote letters and poems to his son as a catharsis for his grief. In that process he discovered that there is life after death on both sides of the equation and that miracles do happen. A compelling story of love, loss, and recovery that will grab your heart, nourish your soul, and open your eyes, Letters to My Son is a must read for anyone who has experienced a great loss and is trying to find some path out of the darkness of their despair.

Praise for Fatherless Sons "Research shows that most men now are better fathers than their own fathers were to them. A generation of men are 'making it up,' giving to their children more than they received. No one describes the poignancy--and hope--of contemporary fatherhood better than Jonathan Diamond's heartfelt and insightful new book. For every man who had a father--and who wants to be one." --Terrence Real, author of I Don't Want to Talk About It: Overcoming the Secret Legacy of Male Depression and How Can I Get Through to You?: Closing the Intimacy Gap Between Men and Women "Diamond's moving account of his relationship with his father is a nuanced exploration of mourning and its aftermath." --Publishers Weekly "This is a powerful and beautiful book, written with warmth, humor, and generosity of spirit. Fatherless Sons guides us through the complex journey of grief, helping to transform pain and anguish into hope and healing." --Dr. Dusty Miller, author of Your Surviving Spirit and Women Who Hurt Themselves

Sophie Elliott had everything to live for, until her ex boyfriend decided otherwise. The gripping mother's tale of a murder that shocked New Zealand. Sophie Elliott had good looks, intelligence, friends, a loving family, a degree under her belt and a new job at the Treasury in Wellington. And then, the day before she left Dunedin to take up that job, she was brutally stabbed to death in her own home by her former boyfriend, Clayton Weatherston. He was much older and one of her lecturers at the university. When the public came to take his measure at his high-profile trial in 2010, his narcissistic, manipulative personality stunned the nation. Sophie's mother Lesley has weathered the horror of her daughter's death, and the gruelling process of the trial, to set up a foundation to help young women identify when they might be in a relationship that puts them in harm's way — as Sophie was, unbeknownst to her and her family — and how to seek help. This book is Lesley's tribute to a daughter she adored, her harrowing account of a tragedy no family should ever have to endure, and her inspiring decision to make sure that Sophie's legacy endures. It's also her challenge to the justice system on behalf of victims.

On March 12, 2009 a helicopter carrying offshore workers to an oil production platform in the North Atlantic off the coast of Newfoundland crashed into the ocean. Seventeen of the people on board the helicopter perished that day. Just one survived. Thanks to an inquiry into the cause of the crash, which included testimony from the lone survivor, much has been learned about helicopter safety in the years since. However, little has been said about the 17 others who lost their lives that day. The families are now custodians of their legacies. In 18 Souls: The Loss & Legacy of Cougar Flight 491, families and friends speak candidly -- in some cases for the first time -- about what was really lost and what could have been had fate been kind that day. This book goes beyond the question of offshore safety and reveals the depths of raw emotion still resonating in the hearts and minds of those left behind. In doing so 18 Souls pays tribute and honours the memory of the passengers and crew of Cougar Flight 491.
