In deiner Trauer getragen

The companion for the time of farewell – a compassionate guide for all those who accompany the dying and the grieving or have lost a loved one and seek comfort. The author, Mechthild Schroeter-Rupieper, is the founder of family grief work in Germany and incorporates many case studies and stories from the experiences of grieving families. When a family member or close relative falls ill, many people feel abandoned and overwhelmed, especially when it becomes clear that the time left together is limited. In such situations, parents, children, relatives, teachers, caregivers, and friends often need help, support, and comfort. Mechthild Schroeter-Rupieper's new book is a companion for the dying and their relatives, as well as for those grieving after a death. In sensitive texts, it becomes clear why it is so important for us to confront the emerging questions openly and honestly and to give space to the grief within us in order to find solace. No question, no taboo is left unaddressed as Mechthild Schroeter-Rupieper, based on her many years of work with the terminally ill and the grieving, discusses all topics related to dying, good farewells, or healing grief – always with the comforting assurance that ultimately we cannot fall deeper than into God's hands.
