“Bearing the Unbearable: Love, Loss, and the Heartbreaking Path of Grief” is a book that is simultaneously heartbreaking and uplifting. In this book, Dr. Joanne Cacciatore, an expert in traumatic loss and grief, shares her own journey through grief with the traumatic loss of her own daughter. Dr. Cacciatore is able to depict the narratives of a variety losses, including those of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting, and provides an insight of their understandings, struggles and rituals that people have created to cope with their grief. “Bearing the Unbearable” accurately portrays reality and the rarely explored topic of grief and encourages knowing yourself more deeply in order to find strength, love, and connection. Based on two decades of research data and grief work, Dr. Cacciatore weaves grieving practices throughout the narratives she illustrates to help those who are grieving to process their grief.
