Summary of Joanne Cacciatore's Bearing the Unbearable

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The way Charlotte was killed by a shooter in Newtown, Connecticut, generated a lot of media attention, which caused some people who were personally affected by the death of a child or loved one to feel helplessly exposed and vulnerable. #2 Grief is often misunderstood, and cultural norms promote double standards that are often harmful to those grieving.
Certain tragedies are deemed worthy, and others are not. Individual grief is discouraged, even scorned, beyond a brief period of time.
