In Normal Broken, author Kelly Cervantes doesn't aim to dictate how you should feel, what actions to take, or the ideal path to healing. Instead, she offers a raw and honest portrayal of grief, recognizing that it is a multifaceted and complex emotion that affects everyone differently. After experiencing the loss of her daughter to epilepsy, Cervantes understands that grief is an unpredictable and nonlinear journey. It is not a linear process, and the way we grieve varies greatly from person to person.
The essence of Normal Broken lies in its commitment to meeting individuals where they are in their grief journeys. Cervantes doesn't offer quick fixes or superficial solutions. Instead, she provides a safe space for you to acknowledge your brokenness and feel broken together, without any pressure to "move on" or "think positive." The book is organized into chapters that can be read in any order, allowing you to choose the moments of grief that resonate with you at any given time.
Some of the chapters address common challenges faced by grievers, such as uncertainty about wanting to heal, fear of socializing, navigating anniversaries and other meaningful dates, and the process of finding acceptance and moving forward. Cervantes shares personal stories from her ongoing journey, offering advice she wishes someone had given her and simple exercises to help you reflect on where you are in your grief journey.
Normal Broken is not a one-size-fits-all approach to grief. It acknowledges that everyone's experience is unique, and it encourages you to embrace your emotions and honor your healing process at your own pace. Cervantes emphasizes the importance of self-compassion and self-care, reminding you that it is okay to take time and space to heal.
In conclusion, Normal Broken is a powerful and compassionate book that offers solace, guidance, and understanding to those who are navigating the depths of grief. Author Kelly Cervantes understands the complexities of grief and provides a relatable and authentic perspective. Whether you are grieving the loss of a loved one or are simply seeking support and empathy, this book can be a valuable companion on your journey.
