One thing I especially appreciated was that the stories were presented in a religion-neutral way, meaning that the author wasn't pushing any particular view. She allowed each person to express whatever was important to them at the time. Being more aware of the many different ways I can initiate and maintain a connection with my mother is the most helpful information I could recieve. I have already sent six copies to friends who are in mouring for their own mothers. Anyone who has lost someone close to them will benefit from the awareness that develops. This book is a public service to anyone in mourning.
