How does a parent survive watching their 8 year old child hit by a truck and killed? How does the heart heal enough to welcome another child and to love her wholly? Robert Goor wrote letters to his son Andrew naming his deep agony and, ultimately, the winding path to recovery. Rob learned to accept his grief and all the feelings that came with it, including the love and continued connection to his son. Becoming a person with deeper feelings of every kind, his letters became a book as Rob looked for a way to share the lessons he learned through his most terrible loss.
