Translator disclaimer

This article draws on first-person narratives about sudden deaths that create overwhelming grief and the near impossibility of mourning. These narratives inform and expand psychotherapeutic theories and practices about grief and mourning. The author includes an autobiographical case study about the termination of his own long-term psychotherapy and his subsequent accompaniment of that therapist through his terminal illness.
