New York, New York and San Francisco, California -Dr. Richard Dew’s youngest son, Bradley, was murdered at the age of 21. After two trials and nine parole hearings Richard is well acquainted with the problems families face including recognizing the difference between depression and normal grief. As a physician in family practice Richard has found that many health care givers make the mistake of medicating normal grief. Richard is the author of Rachel's Cry, a book of poetry and Tunnel of Light, a novel dealing with the stresses on a marriage that often follows the death of a child.
