Dear Isobel

Coping with a child’s death is traumatic and isolating. A personal and moving story, Dear Isobel tells the truth about that trauma and isolation through the eyes of both parents and shows how, individually, they came to terms with their loss. The only book of its kind, Dear Isobel was written so that other bereaved parents may feel less alone, and to explain to family and friends how they can best offer their support. Advice on bereavement by a liaison sister at The Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street, who helped Georgiana and Piers Monckton through Isobel’s illness and death, together with an information section containing details of organisations that support the bereaved are also given.
