Ruth lost her mum in 2020. For the last 6 years of her life she'd been living in Ruth's home, and they'd become very close.
Writing these poems was a vital part of Ruth's grief journey, helping her to process the enormity of her loss and to work through her deep pain, finally coming to a place of acceptance, comfort, and healing.
This book invites the reader to walk that road with Ruth, in the hope that it will be a help to them on their own path to healing.
The book is divided into 4 main sections that correspond to the concepts of William J Worden's '4 Tasks of Grief', which Ruth found very beneficial on her healing journey. Each poem has been assigned to the 'Grief Task' that it fits best with.
