In this rare circumstance, Denny Meek has lived the nightmare not once, but three times. In her Award-winning book, "Still Standing" reveals a poignant, well-written, and shocking look inside the heart, soul, and mind of a mother who has had to grieve over and over unbearable losses.
Denny is a mother who faced loss of child not once but 3 times. This inspiring story helps communities and grieving parents cope with one of the most devastating losses. And discusses where our network of mental health support falls short.
Her award-winning book reveals a poignant, well-written, and shocking look inside the heart, soul, and mind of a mother who has had to grieve unbearable losses over and over. It is also an inspiring story of one woman’s ability to remain standing in the face of infant loss, domestic violence, her daughter’s battle with Anorexia Nervosa, and the suicides of two of her teenagers. “I wrote this book in the hope that others who grieve the loss of a child could identify with the inner landscapes I was describing – especially the ones they couldn’t share with others – and see that they weren’t alone,” Denny says. “I wanted to give voice to my children’s lives, and I also felt that helping others might bring some meaning to my own losses.”
She hopes people will see the book’s title – Still Standing – as a celebration of what the human spirit is capable of. “Exceptional strengths can come from the most difficult places,” says Meek who resides on the Gold Coast, Australia. “If impossible experiences can be endured, they can bring untold personal growth. It’s the sharing of this that can offer insight, hope and empowerment to others.
