Director of Adolescent Services, Sharon Apopa is a licensed social worker and knows the stages of grief, yet when her twin sister Caron died suddenly last year, she had to find a way to get through.

Journaling worked for her and on March 12 she will release her journal as a book on her sister's life. Body & Soul's Cathy Stovell asked her what the public should expect in the limited edition publication. Here's what she said.

"There are often many unanswered questions when someone dies suddenly. Where did they go, did I tell them I loved them, did I do all I could for them while they lived? Did they suffer, did they die alone.

"This book reflects on Caron's last year of her life, and attempts to answer some of these questions through reflection. Caron and I were inseparable as twins, and so these are my memories of her from a twin perspective. The book looks at her struggle with the physical challenges, and provides hope to those with an enduring illness, that their physical condition does not have to stop their destiny and purpose.

"The book looks at the role that our faith in God plays in helping us to overcome our life challenges. The book refutes the myth that God only uses perfect people, and lets people know that God desires to use ordinary people who desire to be used of him. The book talks about the humours of family life, and family values, and encourages the reader to take out time to spend with family on a regular basis..

"Finally, the book encourages the reader to heal broken family relationships and to prepare for the inevitability of death by loving their family members each day. One of the things that helped me through the past year was that I had no regrets about how I loved and treated my twin sister."
