The struggle to move on with supporting and raising his young family while trying to become whole again as an individual encounters many frustrating obstacles especially when trying to blend families. The 20 year journey climaxes in heartbreak when 3 of his adult children estrange themselves and their children from their father/grandfather. In search of answers and a path to reconciliation he explores the underlying issues of Pathological Grief, detachment, entitlement and arrested development drawing upon professional counsel and religious faith. He shares the devastating effects of estrangement, a silent epidemic facing many families who are struggling privately with the pain, helplessness and embarrassment of a nearly taboo subject in today's society....ending with thoughts on surviving the darkness of the resulting depression that walks hand in hand with estrangement
