The Butterfly Years: A Journey Through Grief Toward Hope

Book excerpt: In this raw, vulnerable memoir, Katty Douraghy chronicles her personal experience through grief after the death of six family members, including her parents and her stepparents, within a very short time frame. The journey through grief is unique and does not follow a set timeline or a clearly defined path. The Butterfly Years infuses hope and lessons learned along the way to show a different perspective on grief and mourning. Whether you are experiencing grief in the early weeks of a loss, or if your grief has transitioned over time to settle deep in your heart, The Butterfly Years reminds us that we are all on the journey through grief and toward hope together.
