Most people who live out a full life span will experience the loss of both parents, notes Pope (psychology, U. of West Georgia), yet the literature on bereavement has paid little attention to this loss, focusing on the loss of a spouse or child. He explores the lived meanings of the midlife loss of parents using a phenomenological research method. His emphasis is not how people can return to the pre-bereavement level of behavior and functioning, but on the psychological and spiritual transitions such a loss can bring.
