Marianne Dietzel and Linda Bergh lost their teenage daughters, Nina and Kirsten, in a car accident in 1996. Their mutual losses brought them through grief and gave them the desire to be of service to others suffering loss. Linda is the publisher of She Would Draw Flowers\ a book of poetry by Kirsten Bergh. (See Grief Poems for one of Kirsten’s poems, “For You, Papa.)
As a master storyteller, Diane Rooks found healing after the death of her husband and son in the stories that she heard and told. On this show Diane reveals how we can use our stories to repair even the most shattered lives. She is the author of Spinning Gold out of Straw: How Stories Heal.
