Call Me If You Need Anything...and Other Things Not to Say - A Guide to Helping Others Through Tragedy or Grief (Paperback)

Many people shy away from those who have terminal illnesses or have suffered other tragedies or losses, because they do not know what to do or to say.

Peterson even includes guidance on what not to do or say. Call Me If You Need Anything...and Other Things Not to Say is straightforward guidance on how to show that you really do care.
