When Grief Feels Impossible, Grief is an Origami Swan is Here to Hold You
There will be days when it feels impossible.
Days when the air is too heavy, the memories too sharp.
On those days, cling to the pages of Grief is an Origami Swan by Michèle Saint-Michel — a grief book unlike any other. Created for those who’ve loved deeply and lost, it offers softness, ritual, and presence when the world feels too loud.
A new reader recently shared:
“As I adjust to a life without them… it seems truly impossible. But your book is a handsome companion for the moment, something to literally cling to... Thank you very much. I’m really glad it made its way into my hands.”
If we live long enough and love deeply, grieving becomes a part of living. Many things end before we’re ready. But just as holidays and traditions mark our most meaningful connections, grief reminds us of how deeply we’ve felt — and how human that makes us.
You have loved.
You have lost.
And it hurts.
Let this book help you make space for that duality. Grief has no timeline. Your pain — rooted in love — belongs in the story of your life.
Grief is an Origami Swan by Michèle Saint-Michel — a gentle companion for those navigating love, loss, and the impossible days
On impossible days, cling to what keeps you here.
A page. A friend. A quiet moment. A folded paper swan.
Take a shower.
Water a plant.
Hug your fur friend.
Take a walk.
Fold another swan.
Keep going.
Do the impossible.
