Publisher's summary
When Rebecca Tervo awoke on January 29, 2012, it seemed like just another lazy Sunday morning. What she didn't realize was that her life and the life of her family had already been changed forever. Her 17-year-old son, Trevor, was already dead of suicide in an adjacent room, she just didn't know it yet.
The shock of another teen suicide was felt throughout the community and the schools.
This book tells how Rebecca reacted to the event that changed everything for her and her family. It was uncharted territory for her, her husband, the community and the school.
It describes the unrelenting and nearly unbearable grief and loss. There were so many questions and so few answers. Why would Trevor do this? Where were the signs that Trevor had been depressed? Did someone else know something about Trevor's pain? Why would such a bright young man choose this?
How would she go on? She had so many unanswered questions. How would she care for her other three children and her grief-stricken husband? How would her 20+ year marriage survive the biggest trial it had ever faced?
These issues and the grieving process she lived through are all laid out with raw honesty, but are told as if she was sitting with you on the front porch with a cup of coffee.
After experiencing all the stages of grief and despite everything, Rebecca finds a way to dig her way back to life. She chooses to live a life with more happiness and purpose than ever before. This book tells how she uses various support groups and therapy sessions to cope, but ultimately does some major work on her own to enter life again.
Not as the same woman, but a new, more conscious and mindful mother, wife and friend. She depicts how her personal transformation helped her make the decision to leave her accounting career, lose weight, do major decluttering and forgiveness work, and set some big goals for her life.

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight - or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years - all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.

When it comes to the “hard seasons” of life—the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job—transformation seems impossible when grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Especially when, as Didn’t See that Coming reveals, no one asks to have their future completely rearranged for them. But, as Rachel Hollis writes, it is up to you how you come through your pain—you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you.

Story
Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves.

Her groundbreaking research shows that an increasing number of women - more than half of those in her extensive study - are doing it too much and too often, hindering their ability to lead a satisfying life.

Great book for grief support.
We lost our beautifully brilliant 19 yo son to depression. We knew Jon was suicidal and had a plan. we tried to get him help and were unable to save him
In this book the author talked about so many of the same emotions I have experienced. It was so helpful to hear that I am not alone aha that I am not crazy.
I'm looking forward to trying tapping. I had heard of it but had not thought that it might be helpful. I feel like I am where the author was in my grief before she started tapping and am ready to try something new.
Thank you!

Grateful
I liked the clear and simple honesty.
While listening I heard out loud, my exact thoughts and feelings after losing my son to suicide. I loved being a mom, loved my beautiful son.
Realizing I was not crazy, why I was so angry and confused about my perceived failings in life and not being the kind of person I thought I should be after he died, was overwhelming.
Listening to this book will help release me from guilt and hopefully bring a sense of joy back into living.
There was nothing else I could do under this unbearable pain but survive. So grateful I made it through without doing something devastating, it was a close call for me through the trauma.
Today I feel so grateful, everything positive, like this book, keeps me moving forward.
Thank you for taking time to write this book,
Dawna

An incredibly painful journey told so beautifully.
The floodgates of emotion was opened within me by Rebecca’s story. I’ve never experienced suicide but it doesn’t matter. I hope that after listening to this book I’ll have a better sense of compassion for those who have as well as additional options for recovering from trauma.

Not about suicide of a child
Rebecca’s story begins with her painful loss but after a very short time this book becomes a business self help/motivation guide. I was looking for coping help not what this was. I left very disappointed
