A boating friend gifted me this book after he learned about Connor’s passing. The author’s 26-year-old son died in a climbing accident. He wrote the book as therapy for himself and as a way to help other dads who have lost a child.
The most important takeaway is something I already knew but was good to be reminded: if Connor could somehow communicate with me from the other side, he would tell me to heal up and find a way to be happy again. He would want me to miss him of course, but he wouldn’t want me to give up living. I know that is true.
