Understanding helps heal the hurt when you lose a pet.

This edition also includes a significant new way of considering the meaning of afterlife for us and our pets.

This book will help you in your healing from that special loss. It includes topics such as: * Validating this special kind of grief* The grieving process, including typical stages of bereavement and techniques for coping
* Children and the death of a pet
* Euthanasia, including important emotional considerations
* Religion and the death of a pet, with articles by various religious leaders
