About
A powerful account of one father's journey through unimaginable grief that offers readers a new vision for how to more actively and fully mourn profound loss.
When Colin Campbell's two teenage children were killed by a drunk driver, he was thrown headlong into a grief so deep he felt he might lose his mind. As he began to process his grief, he realized that much of the common wisdom about coping with loss was unhelpful - that it is a private, mysterious, and unknowable process and that the pain is so great that there "are no words." In Finding the Words, Campbell draws on what he learned from his own journey through grieving to offer readers an alternate path for processing their pain that is active, vocal, and truly honors the loved ones they have lost.
In Finding the Words Campbell offers readers practical advice on how to more fully process their grief by actively reaching out to community, performing mourning rituals, and finding ways to express their loss that shine light on a path forward.
