Without My Father

Daniel describes in intimate detail the days leading up to, and following on from, his father's passing. Initially in denial that he could ever lose his father, he has to eventually face the inevitable outcome that his father does not have long to live. Daniel's journey, as he documents his year of mourning in 2016 and onwards, is a heart-breaking story, as he struggles to cope with his loss and new-found responsibilities, whilst reflecting on life after death. Denial, acceptance, grief and depression; Daniel attempts to survive throughout the year, drawing strength from his faith in God, his religion and the love and support of his family, along with the guidance and wisdom that his late father provided, enabling him to finally face the future with positivity. This book is a must-read for anybody struggling to cope with the loss of a loved one.

When Daniel Rose, a devout Jewish man, lost his father, he felt compelled to write this book about coping with grief and working through the bereavement process, in the hope that it would help others experiencing loss, as well as serving as a tribute to his father.
