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:
£8.90
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

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.
