Grieving a Child

"Learn How to Cope with Grieving a Child and start Your Recovery after suffering a Major Loss"

"Discover a Revolutionary New Approach that will help You heal from losing a child and get Your Life back on track"

From the desk of Maurice Turmel PhD 

Dear Friend,

• Are You feeling overwhelmed by the emotional effects of having lost a child through accident, illness, murder or war?
• Are You feeling anxious, depressed and hurt as a result of this trauma?
• Are you feeling confused, lost and angry over this tremendous loss? 
• Are You looking for help to deal with your feelings of grief and loss?
• Are You ready to begin your grief recovery so you can get your life back on track?

Losing a child is one of life's biggest tragedies. All that promise, all those hopes, all those possibilities for a bright and successful future disappear in an instant. Whether you've lost a young child or an adult child, the feeling of loss cuts deep. As parents, we are simply not programmed to deal with the death of a child. We accept the loss of our parents and grandparents as inevitable. But losing a child, that's never something we expect to deal with.

We bring children into the world with great hopes for their future. We imbue them with all kinds of future possibilities, like education, marriage and career success. We look forward to these events as a series of experiences we will celebrate and enjoy together as we mark their progress through life. Never are we prepared to have our child taken away by some brutal accident, war, murder or suicide. None of these possibilities enter our mind until something tragic actually happens.

When confronted with this type of loss, we are shaken to our very core. The experience of losing a child unnerves us. All of a sudden the world we thought we knew is no longer safe. Our remaining children are not safe. We collapse into a puddle of nerves and tears.

Many of my therapy clients came to me because of such a loss, and I quickly learned how painful grieving a child could be. Some of these parents knew me from previous work, but most arrived for the first time and presented this experience as their referring problem.  They were still in shock.  Some were angry and depressed.  Most were confused, like they'd been hit by a truck.  Their frame of reference didn't account for this experience. There was nothing in their repertoire to help them deal with this.

What does it take to get over losing a child? A lot of investigation into our own nature and behavior seems to come up right away. Why did this happen? What could I have done differently? How did I fail? Should I have said No when asked for the car keys that fateful night? The questions, guilt and remorse come at us fast and furious.

I wrote "How to Cope with Grief and Loss" as a response to the various types of losses with which people were being confronted. Addressing the loss of a child was particularly poignant because of its unexpected nature. At the core of every experience of loss is the emotional component which seems to get neglected in most approaches to helping grieving parents. This book addresses that component directly and with the utmost respect and sympathy. Here's what one reader has to say:

"Dr. Maurice Turmel has written an exceptionally inspiring book for those experiencing the grieving process, and for the general reader as well.  Filled with inspirational stories, poetry and music, "How to Cope with Grief and Loss" is more than just a book, it is an interactive experience that will raise your spirits.  Dr. Turmel has the knack of hitting just the right note at just the right time.  I truly enjoyed this work. It is a gem that you can refer back to again and again when you're feeling low, or when you need a spiritual lift".

• I have 25 years experience as a practicing therapist, helping individuals and families deal with all kinds of losses, including the loss of a child through illness, accident, murder or suicide.

• I have appeared on numerous regional and national television programs to answer questions regarding grief and loss recovery.

I am the father of two daughters. Thankfully, I've never lost a child in the manner described above. During my years in practice, I helped many parents come to terms with such a loss. Oftentimes I cried with them. I could feel their despair and anguish. Car accidents, suicide, murder, disease and freak occurrences were all part of the mix. One boxing day, in the late 90s, my wife and I witnessed a 14 year old boy being run down by a car. He was killed instantly. We were shaken. We were scared. Our thoughts immediately ran to our own daughters. Where were they? Were they safe? We couldn't believe what we had witnessed.

We stayed at the scene and provided statements to the investigating police. We remained badly shaken. We just couldn't believe what our eyes had shown us. We actually saw a young life snuffed out in an instant. At one moment we saw this boy crossing the street, heading for a bus stop. Seconds later, he was lying on the ground in a lifeless heap. His life had been taken away by a series of freakish circumstances.

One year later my wife and I were in court testifying as to what we had witnessed. We learned that the victim was an Iranian boy whose family had come to North America to escape the tyrannical rule of their home country. His parents and extended family exhibited all the signs of a recent trauma. They were still locked in their grief as if the incident had just happened. The woman responsible for the accident was being prosecuted for dangerous driving. She was an emotional mess and was heavily medicated. Every time someone testified as to her driving behavior and the boy's death, she noticeably flinched. The boy's family wanted answers, and perhaps some retribution. There were no winners here. What both parties needed was emotional healing, the core requirement in grieving a child.

Different Kinds of Loss

On another occasion I was asked to address a meeting of "Compassionate Friends", a support group for grieving parents. As each member of the group recounted their story I began to see the range of experiences which had brought them all together. Their children had died by the variety of circumstances listed above. These parents were at different stages in their grieving a child recovery process. Some were almost healed, while others were still stuck back in the moment they first heard the news. It was sad to watch because I knew that with some prodding, encouragement and support they all could be much further along.

I did what I could in addressing their loss. And I urged them to engage in a proper recovery program. Support groups are helpful, but they do not necessarily lead to recovery. They offer support, but no direction. Many of these parents were continuously recycling their pain and not moving forward with their grieving a child recovery. A few of them came to see me afterwards and we put them through our grief and loss healing program. Everyone that took this path recovered.

Permission to Feel

"These stories and reflections give us permission to express our feelings of grief and loss overtly.  They are therapeutic, written in simple fashion, appealing to men, women and children, who have found themselves in the circumstance of grieving, with a wounded heart.  Thank you Dr. Turmel for sharing your own heart with us.''
Sister Evelyn Bastien - Longeuil, Quebec

In the end it doesn't matter what took your child from you; the grieving and healing process you must undergo remains the same. Dealing with feelings through therapy, group work and guided journaling are the tools and practices necessary for recovery. I successfully used this approach for all my grieving clients. Everyone who pursued this program completed their recovery and were able to move on with their lives.

Appeals to Persons of All Faiths

"Even though references to God are Christian in tone, "How to Cope with Grief and Loss" will appeal to persons of many faiths suffering the experience of loss.  These stories are simple and hold interest, offering much comfort, insight and motivation to share one's grief, that being essential to the healing process."
Father Gilbert Gariepy, Chaplain Services, Health Sciences Centre, Winnipeg, Manitoba

Lately, I've met people who are still stuck in their grieving experience. Their child may have died years ago but, for them, it may as well have been yesterday. They have not gained an inch. There is no substitute for grieving a child in the most direct manner possible if you truly want to heal. Some people simply refuse to move forward, hanging on to their grief as if they were hanging on to their child. They don't accept that they can actually heal and still hold on to that precious child in a loving and expansive way rather than continued suffering.

You have to choose healing in order to recover from grief. You have to commit to your own recovery just like any other person who is stuck in some disabling condition. Imagine, for a moment, you are the deceased child looking down at your parents and siblings. What would you want for them? Healing or Suffering? And those wonderful memories you had of each other before the tragedy, where do they go if you choose suffering? When you die, do you want your loved ones to remain in a state of perpetual grief? Likely not! Good then, you know what you have to do.
