Life After Grief

Thrust unwillingly into the role of caregiver as a young man, Chris Dale despaired as his family's health and finances unraveled.

Confronted by trauma, grief, racism, and monetary instability, he endured repeated losses, crushing responsibility, unbelievable revelations, and life-altering medical crises that nearly broke him. Determined, Chris turned inward and outward, finding healing through grief counseling, mentorship, faith, and service, always with the loving presence of friends and family. What emerged from his reckoning was not just survival but clarity and the ability to guide others. Life After Grief: Holding the Numbers with Shaking Hands-When Money, Trauma. Grief, and Racism Collide traces the hard-won scars Chris earned during his journey and how he transformed personal suffering into a calling to guide and lift up others through life's most difficult transitions.
