Publisher's Synopsis
When Linda was six years old, her Mum died. Thirty-five years later, she learned that it is never too late to grieve. Time alone had not healed her wounds, there were many thoughts and feelings that had to be faced head on. Practical tasks helped Linda to take time to grieve including: discovering more about her Mum; looking at old school books; and, surprisingly, making rag dolls! By also learning about total forgiveness and shedding lots and lots of tears, Linda describes how she was able finally to let the past be the past! Linda also gave birth to a still-born son, Charlie. Grieving for Charlie was much more immediate and intense - and so in many ways this stands in contrast to Linda's experience of grieving for her Mum. Linda Hendry has been a member of St Thomas's Church, Lancaster, UK, for over 30 years, and was a seminar speaker at the New Wine Landmark Conference in 2015. She is also a Professor of Operations Management at Lancaster University, UK.
