Ya got people. Helping people with
developmental disabilities deal with grief, bereavement and loss
by
Carolyn S Bowling & Jeffrey W Wilder

|

|
Order code: 05-B018 Price:
£10.00
Format: 215x140mm 116pp paperback
A radically
humane and practical approach to supporting people with developmental
disabilities who experience grief, bereavement and loss! Radical because
this book confronts stereotypes about those with disabilities. Humane
because there is a deep grasp of humanity and disability. Practical because
there are tools to assist those experiencing loss. The fact that the
authors have disabilities may account for the empathy on each page. They
know what it is to be stripped of humanity and classified as “non-feeling”
disabled people. They advocate for the right for all people to feel grief
while providing insight and ideas for how to better support.
Carolyn is a
woman with albinism and visual impairments. Jeff is a man with cerebral
palsy. They make a unique training team. Together, they have written this
almost miraculous book. Be ready to learn, to grow and develop a true sense
of empathy for all who grieve.

In
1986, days before her 25th birthday, Catherine moved from her parents’ into
her own home. It was an exciting, somewhat anxious time, the culmination of
two years of planning and hard work on the part of many people. Everyone
was eager to help Cath create a home for herself
where she would have both the necessary paid, live-in support and the
freely given friendship and help of others living in the two upstairs
apartments. This book celebrates Cath’s 35th
birthday and the 10th anniversary of her move. Meet her housemates, enjoy
her life.
