Insightful and compassionate, the paths outlined in this book encourage the griever to fully experience their grief in a healthy way while embracing their memories and moving forward to find fulfillment in their lives. Heartfelt text is perfectly paired with moving photographic images and relevant passages from scripture, making this book an excellent selection to help youngsters through their journey of grief.”

“Growing up is hard enough, and dealing with the loss of a loved one makes it much harder. This book is the best one I’ve seen to help young people facing grief, a ‘healing kit’ they will actually use, because of its hip, colorful design. Written with a balanced blend of compassionate logic and religious faith, the book is easy to read, and loaded with good information. Tanya Kilgore has created a unique and valuable tool that will help heal and maybe even save lives.”

The Grief Recovery Kit is an anointed work book, not only for the young…. but also for all ages. It’s user-friendly, full of inspiring photos, and most importantly shares a variety of tools to deal with grief and the depression that can often follow a great loss. This book helps one to understand the many facets of grief: death, divorce, loss of a job, loss of a pet, and so much more. The Grief Recovery Kit provides exercises that will ignite a hope within your heart and will enable you to take that first step toward healing. I am so grateful to have read this book. It is a book I will definitely share with others in my life who are experiencing the grief process.

The Grief Recovery Kit is easy to follow and the pictures add a personal touch that is effective in communicating what the author intends. The author has done a great job through the “activities” section of giving tools that can help in dealing with grief for yourself or someone you are helping. Thank you for providing a tool that is a guide for all ages and all grief situations.

The Grief Recovery Kit is not just for young people, I use this tool in my work with hospice and I have found it to be well received from grievers of all ages. There is a sense of hope and even peace when you read this book. I definitely recommend it for dealing with death, and for other kinds of grief as well.

FOREWORD

Grief is one of the tools the devil will use to keep people from living their lives to the fullest. The pain of accepting what has happened can be overwhelming and those fighting this battle need more help than simply being told to “move on” with life. That’s why I am so glad Tanya Kilgore has created The Grief Recovery Kit. It is a comprehensive resource for children, teens, and adults working through the grief process. Tanya lays out very specific and practical steps to be taken in order to move from brokenness into wholeness. It may not be an easy process, but being proactive in seeking healing will be worth it.

The Bible tells us that Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted and comfort those who mourn (Isaiah 61:1). My prayer for you as you apply the information in The Grief Recovery Kit is that you will experience God’s love in a real and powerful way and you will complete down to the last detail what God has assigned you to do (John 17:4  Message).”
