and powerful way of healing. Grief Yoga founder Paul Denniston

Surrender, and Evolution with clear and compassionate instruction,

K. C. Camden professes that her family was just like any other in
the fact that over the years, they were hardly perfect. But
together they weathered the storms, laughed and cried, and loved
and fought. Everything changed for the Camden family one November
day when K. C. drove up to her house and made a horrifying
discovery: her son, Joey, had committed suicide. K. C. details her
journey as an average mother who provides a loving and nurturing
home for her two children but eventually must face and fight the
daunting issues of domestic violence, drug abuse, and depression.
While sharing her own misgivings and insecurities, she honestly
portrays the path of severe depression that led Joey to take his
own life, including her personal regret in not knowing more about
the side effects of the controversial anti-depressant drug Paxil
and in trusting the doctor who prescribed it for Joey. "Only
Forgotten Son" offers understanding and compassion for those who
suffer the terrible darkness of depression and will hopefully
lessen the unwarranted stigma associated with suicide.
Based on work originally published in 1650 and 1651, this book
combines Jeremy Taylor's two most famous writings: *The Rule and
Exercises of Holy Living* and *The Rule and Exercises of Holy
Dying.* These books are owner's manuals for the soul, describing
for readers how to attain virtue, avoid vice, and live a proper
Christian life. The book is divided into sections based on which
virtue and which vice the reader needs help with. *On Dying* speaks
to those who, before they are old and ill, have given some thought
to dying and wish to ensure that they pass properly to Heaven.
Devout Christians will find this book inspirational and
instructional.
