BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN - Ann Michael

. .

Résumé :
Beautifully Broken was born many years prior to the first words hitting the pages of this book. My experience with suicide started as a child with my mother's suicide attempts and continued with the loss of one of my best friends while I was in college. After that loss, my brother attempted suicide and one of my first true loves took his life, and my father also died from suicide. My husband was my strength, and the only way I survived the loss of my father and just a couple years before this book became real, he himself took his own life. The journey through loss from suicide is unlike any other loss. There are more layers of grief and more challenges with a suicide than anyone could ever be prepared to face. It is my hope that what I have learned and have experienced may help others in facing this horrible type of loss. Suicide can be a haunting, and I pray that Beautifully Broken is a way to turn the light into the darkness and lead you through with someone that knows what you are feeling and how to navigate through the dark places.
