This book examines and describes aspects of acute grief that are
peculiar to those who have lost an adult son or daughter. The
essays in this volume express the view of scholars, clinicians,
social workers, and individuals who have personally experienced the
loss of an adult child. Each contributor describes his or her
experiences within the scope of thanatology itself--a discipline
whose focus is on the practice of supportive physical and emotional
care for those whose lives are threatened, with an equal concern
exhibited for the well-being of their family members. A philosopy
of caregiving is proposed that reinforces alternative ways of
enhancing the quality of life; introduces methods of intervention
on behalf of the emotional status of all involved; and fosters a
more mature understanding of the dying process and the problems of
seperation, loss, bereavement, and grief.
