From the chief medical correspondent of ABC News comes a heartfelt memoir about surviving the suicide of a loved one, exploring the impact of this tragic epidemic and offering insights for healing. Dr. Jennifer Ashton faced profound grief when her ex-husband took his life after their divorce, shattering her world and that of her children. Despite her public role, she struggled to share her personal trauma, hesitant to reveal such a painful experience. However, the high-profile suicides of figures like Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain prompted her to speak out, recognizing the importance of voicing her grief. On air, she shared her story with her Good Morning America family, providing solace to others who have faced similar losses. In this memoir, Dr. Ashton opens up fully for the first time, aiming to inspire those grappling with unimaginable pain. Blending personal narrative with a comforting guide, she incorporates insights from researchers and health professionals, advocating against the epidemic of suicide while sharing stories from others who have endured similar tragedies. The result is a candid exploration of a long-taboo subject, offering support and guidance to those seeking to make sense of their loss and find a path to healing.
