PRAISE FOR

AFTER THE FLOWERS DIE

From the depth of a pain only a Bereaved Parent could know, rises this ray of light that shines for other Bereaved Parents. Melanie has lived and is living the experience of being a Bereaved Parent, and with grace and generosity, the Teacher in her shares her wisdom and insights in this guidebook for All Bereaved Parents.  In my twenty years of Grief Support work, this is the best book for Bereaved Parents I have seen! Thank you, Melanie, for offering your light of hope for others in memory of your precious Garrett.

"It has been said that there is no greater pain than the death of a child. After the Flowers Die by Melanie Delorme is a powerful, compassionate A-Z guide that offers grieving parents practical and insightful wisdom from a mother who has learned to live with meaning and hope after her child's death.”
