Letters to Matthew - Life After Loss, invites you into the world of grief. It is not sugar coated or edited to make it an easy read, which is why it has been separated into two distinct parts.

Part one contains the heartfelt letters written by grieving mother Louise to her son Matthew after he died at the age of 27. The letters are a mixture of anguish, deep sorrow, humour, wisdom, personal insights, and experiences that may resonate with others who have lost a special person.

Part two is about her journey of self-discovery and how Louise turned her grief and loss into something positive.

The loss of a child is unimaginable, but Louise has managed to turn this heart-breaking experience into something positive. By sharing her letters, insights, thoughts, and feelings with the world she is not only keeping Matthew’s memory alive but also giving hope to other people that life can be meaningful again after the death of a loved one.

Letters to Matthew -Life After Loss is also available on Audible.
