Publisher's Summary

Empty Arms is written for surviving the first hours and beyond.

Revised and updated! This classic audiobook is one of the first given to newly bereaved parents to offer guidance in decision-making after their baby's death and to assist caregivers as they support families. Empty Arms encourages families to meet their babies and say hello before rushing to say goodbye.

With compassion that comes from Sherokee and David's experience of having lived through the death of their son Brennan, the audiobook offers guidance and practical suggestions for the decision-making at the time (including why and how one might see, hold, and memorialize one's baby) and over time (such as how to handle such times as anniversaries, holidays, and the birth of other babies in the parents' close circle).

Family and friends can learn how to understand the loss and be supportive of the bereaved families.

It offers ongoing support about subjects such as returning to work or to life, couple grieving, surviving children, feeling guilty, having another child or not, and feeling lonely.

With over 300,000 hard copies in print, this audiobook touches the hearts of families at the time of their loss and over time as they heal. 

This audiobook is expertly narrated by the author. If possible, the author recommends reading along in the book as you listen to this audio edition to facilitate maximum understanding and retention.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
