The Lives We Once Knew

By Robert J Brennan

Grandparent alienation is a profound unending grief that tears at your very soul. There is no easy acceptance.

There is no coming to terms with the loss. Instead you face a constant sharp heartbreak that cuts like a knife. It damages physical health and destroys mental wellbeing. It leaves you with one agonising question Why?

This book does not offer medical advice, it does not provide easy answers nor offer simple closure.

It is about one persons quest to understand the unthinkable. The Lives We Once Knew is a raw, realistic, and deeply moving collection of poems that speaks through the silence and puts words to a hidden trauma. It speaks of unyielding, soul-deep love that adult family dynamics can never truly erase.
