About this title: Frozen sadness - what we have when we cannot really know what we have lost. This is what Pauline Boss illuminates, and helps to ease.

"it was relly just an ok book deals more with altzhiemers even though you can try and relate it to TBI but not overly helpful money could bebetter spent or just go see a Pastor."
"This was an excellent resource for helping recognize that there is ambiguous loss surrounding unrecovered bodies,as well as psychological loss suffered due to immigration and frequent relocation."
"What a helpful, enlightening book! Boss introduces the concept of ambiguous loss and helps us understand how it's different from clear loss. This concept applies to so many of our losses in life - she concentrates on the loss experienced in chronic illness, but it's easily applicable to many other things. Her writing is beautiful and understandable. LOVED the book. Use it all the time."
