Blindsided: A Game Plan for Grief

by Glenn Crichton, Roslyn Crichton, Mark S.M. Scott

A Game Plan for Grief guides the reader through the emotional, physical, and spiritual complexities of the grieving process. Drawing from their personal experiences of loss and their practical and theoretical backgrounds, the authors discuss common misconceptions about grief and suggest helpful coping strategies. They adopt a creative and unique entry point into the sports. They transpose key concepts from the familiar world of sports to the unfamiliar world of grief, so that injury, loss, teamwork, communication, presence, legacy, celebration, and other principles from sports become guideposts to help you navigate your own unique grief journey.

"This is far and away the best book on living with grief that I know of." - Nicholas Wolterstorff

[Elizabeth · Rating 1 out of 5]

Perhaps this would be useful to someone who views all of life through the lens of sports but it was not at all useful for me. Extremely cursory and poorly written.

Extremely focused on sports metaphors.
