The song that helped me grieve

Available for over a year

New Yorkers Jayson and Stacy Greene were enchanted with their little girl, Greta. But when Greta was two, she was killed in a freak accident. She and her grandmother were sitting on a bench in Manhattan when a lump of masonry fell on Greta’s head. Surgery couldn’t save her and she died in hospital the next day, with her parents by her side. Jayson is a writer and began keeping a journal following Greta’s death. He tells Jo Fidgen how his writing and listening to certain songs helped him to grieve. Jayson’s memoir is called Once More We Saw Stars. Image: Jayson and Greta Credit: Joni Greene
