This is a book series that reaches out to those feeling grief or loss and tries to offer a verbal shoulder. We welcome those who are dealing with the emotional aftermath of loss of not only death, but those of:

  • Job
  • Home
  • Family
  • Limb
  • Divorce
  • Identity
  • Beauty
  • Sexuality
  • Time/age
  • Pets
  • Physical Ability
  • Mental Ability
  • Goals
  • Children
  • Innocence

In 2001, my foster mother died while holding my hand. In 1980, a day before her birthday, John Lennon was killed. Both deaths impacted me, and held equal importance in shaping me to who I am today. There are days I still find myself weeping over the loss of a pet I had when I was a small child, because I felt, at the time, I had lost the only thing in my life that wasn't judging me. In 1998, I lost my ability to live as a "normal" person, because of a genetic disorder. The point is, each type of pain brings its own form of grief.

This book series is about you, and me, and people like us, who are Atheists. We are friends, families, and strangers who need support, but have to deal with those who put their beliefs ahead of our grief. This book says that every loss is important deserving mourning, if we need to have that time. And, the pages offer ideas on how to deal with these issues without the contemplation of fairy-tales or deities.

As a service to the site visitors we have set up a Grief Forum. This provides a space where open-minded people can offer support, or ask for support in matters of grief, loss, family changes, and of course, Atheism. There's even a kid's board, so they can chat about things without being preached to. Click Here
