We are all subjects to death. That’s the fate of our life, but when a parent passes away, the family is left with a feeling known as grief and how to cope with the loss.
This is the feeling that everybody will have at some point in their lives, but some will have it earlier than others. The feeling is a common reaction of a loss, and it is represented in a short story written by TJ Corrigan called “Hemi’s Gift”.
