Death of a parent... my book

This is probably still some way off but I have decided to definitely proceed with the book that I have had on the go now, since my mother died: "Diary of a death". At the time, nearly three years ago, it was a lonely process and I wished I could read more about what I was going through. I also wished that I could have planned better for this inevitable life milestone. But, like many, or most, I had ignored the possibility of her dying and this increased the pain. Death is quite a taboo, until you get close experience of it. After that, it becomes easier to understand and to talk about. I would like to get people talking about it more so that we all deal with it better.

Please do get in touch if you wish to talk to me about this - about my book or about your experience, now or in the past...
