Sinopse

Recent events have shown again how suicide touches all of us —              often when we least expect it. But how to unpack the grief that follows such a painful, and often stigmatized, death? Ron Rolheiser can help. When someone is stricken with cancer, one of three things can happen: Doctors treat the disease and cure it; professionals can'             t cure the disease but can control it so that the person suffering can live with the disease for the rest of his or her life; or the cancer can be of a kind that cannot be treated and all the medicine and treatments in the world are powerless –              the person dies. Emotional depression leading to suicide can work the same way. Sometimes a person can be treated so that, in effect, they are cured; sometimes they can'             t ever really be cured, but can be treated in a way that they can live with the disease for their whole life; and sometimes,               just as with certain kinds of cancer, the disease is untreatable, unstoppable, and no intervention by anyone or anything can halt its advance –              it eventually kills the person and there is nothing anyone can do. Thus, Ronald Rolheiser begins this small, powerful book. With chapters also on “             Removing the Taboo,”              “             Despair as Weakness Rather than Sin,”              “             Reclaiming the Memory of Our Loved One,”              and “             The Pain of the Ones Left Behind,”              Fr. Rolheiser offers hope and a new way of understanding death by suicide.
