From Mourning to Morning

Why do we need to grieve and mourn? Is there a correct way to act when someone is dying? How can I avoid feeling guilty? Why do I feel that God has forsaken me? What is the meaning of Shiva? How do I behave at the home of a mourner? What should I say or not say? Should I send flowers or food? In this compassionate, down-to-earth book, Rabbi Simeon Schreiber, Senior Staff Chaplain at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami Beach, answers these and many other questions about death, grieving, mourning, and bereavement. From Mourning to Morning focuses on the Shiva call and contains illuminating suggestions on what to say and what not to say; what to do and what not to do. Rabbi Schreiber helps you develop the sensitivity and expertise needed when others need you most.
