Sorry Dotsie, I have been away from the board for a while now. Catching up on work and I've been in a slump, getting better though.

The book is called " How to Survive the Loss of a Parent, A Guide for Adults"
by Lois F. Akner. C.S.W with Catherine Whitney.
It was printed in the US in 1993. I got it from a thrift shop and it was a great find. Very comforting.
