The trauma of such a loss can sometimes be overpowering and can hinder the acceptance of the loss with a sense of peace. Grievers often refuse to use words such as death, dead, or died. Using these words bring up painful emotions or memories, but more importantly it shows a form of acceptance. This is why it is often avoided.

In the end, the griever must be allowed to take their own time to come to terms with the reality of the loss. Pushing might worsen the situation and cause them to regress. Patience is key and everyone handles loss differently. At it's core, grief is a form of emotional pain.

Grief work journals and grief work diaries allow you to record thoughts, emotions, and feelings that otherwise may be lost or overlooked. Death and loss can cause intense emotions. Workers were moved up and down the railway line as needed. The construction camps consisted of open-sided barracks built of bamboo poles with thatched roofs. Two hundred men were housed in each barracks, giving each man a two-foot wide space in which to live and sleep.

Camps were usually named after the kilometre where they were located. The prisoners of war "found themselves at the bottom of a social system that was harsh, punitive, fanatical, and often deadly.

The estimated number of civilian labourers and POWs who died during construction varies considerably, but the Australian Government figures suggest that of the , people who worked on the line including , Asian labourers and 61, Allied POWs about 90, of the labourers and about 16, Allied prisoners died. Human hair was often used for brushes, plant juices and blood for paint, and toilet paper as the "canvas".

Some of their works were used as evidence in the trials of Japanese war criminals. One of the earliest and most respected accounts is ex-POW John Coast's Railroad of Death , first published in and republished in a new edition in It also describes the living and working conditions experienced by the POWs, together with the culture of the Thai towns and countryside that became many POWs' homes after leaving Singapore with the working parties sent to the railway.

Coast also details the camaraderie, pastimes, and humour of the POWs in the face of adversity. In his book Last Man Out , H. In the foreword to Charles's book, James D. Hornfischer summarizes: "Dr. Henri Hekking was a tower of psychological and emotional strength, almost shamanic in his power to find and improvise medicines from the wild prison of the jungle". Hekking died in Charles died in December Except for the worst months of the construction period, known as the "Speedo" mid-spring to mid-October , one of the ways the Allied POWs kept their spirits up was to ask one of the musicians in their midst to play his guitar or accordion, or lead them in a group sing-along, or request their camp comedians to tell some jokes or put on a skit.

After the railway was completed, the POWs still had almost two years to survive before liberation. During this time, most of the POWs were moved to hospital and relocation camps where they could be available for maintenance crews or sent to Japan to alleviate the manpower shortage there. In these camps entertainment flourished as an essential part of their rehabilitation.

Theatres of bamboo and attap palm fronds were built, sets, lighting, costumes and makeup devised, and an array of entertainment produced that included music halls, variety shows, cabarets, plays, and musical comedies—even pantomimes. These activities engaged numerous POWs as actors, singers, musicians, designers, technicians, and female impersonators. The construction of the Burma Railway is counted as a war crime committed by Japan in Asia.

After the completion of the railroad, most of the POWs were then transported to Japan. Those left to maintain the line still suffered from appalling living conditions as well as increasing Allied air raids. In addition to malnutrition and physical abuse, malaria , cholera , dysentery and tropical ulcers were common contributing factors in the death of workers on the Burma Railway. The quality of medical care received by different groups of prisoners varied enormously. One factor was that many European and US doctors had little experience with tropical diseases.

For example, a group of Dutch prisoners, which included three doctors with extensive tropical medicine experience, suffered no deaths at all. Another group, numbering US personnel, to whom Luitenant Henri Hekking, a Dutch medical officer with experience in the tropics was assigned, suffered only nine deaths.

Another cohort of US personnel suffered deaths.

Weight loss among Allied officers who worked on construction was, on average, 9—14 kg 20—30 lb less than that of enlisted personnel. Workers in more isolated areas suffered a much higher death rate than did others. At the end of World War II, Japanese military officials were tried for war crimes for their brutality during the construction of the railway. Thirty-two of them were sentenced to death.

One of the most notable portions of the entire railway line is Bridge , the so-called "Bridge on the River Kwai", which was built over a stretch of a river that was then known as part of the Mae Klong River. The greater part of the Thai section of the river's route followed the valley of the Khwae Noi River khwae , 'stream, river' or 'tributary'; noi , 'small'.

Khwae was frequently mispronounced by non-Thai speakers as kwai , or 'buffalo' in Thai. This gave rise to the name of "River Kwai" in English. This bridge was immortalized by Pierre Boulle in his book and the film which was based on it, The Bridge on the River Kwai. However, there are many who point out that both Boulle's story and the film which was adapted from it were unrealistic and do not show how bad and poor the conditions and general treatment of the Japanese-held prisoners-of-war were.

In fact, Japanese engineers had been surveying and planning the route of the railway since and they were also highly organized and skilled. A first wooden railroad bridge over the Khwae Yai was finished in February , which was soon accompanied by a more modern ferro-concrete bridge in June , with both bridges running in a NNE—SSW direction across the river.

The newer steel and concrete bridge was made up of eleven curved-truss bridge spans which the Japanese builders brought over from Java in the Dutch East Indies in This is the bridge that still remains today. Repairs were carried out by forced labour of POWs shortly after and by April the wooden railroad trestle bridge was back in operation. On 3 April a second bombing raid, this time by Liberator heavy bombers of the U.

Repair work soon commenced afterwards and continued again and both bridges were operational again by the end of May. A second air-raid by the RAF on 24 June finally severely damaged and destroyed the railroad bridges and put the entire railway line out of commission for the rest of the war.

After Japan's capitulation, the British Army removed about 3. A survey of the track had shown that its poor construction would not support commercial railroad traffic. The new railway line did not fully connect with the Burmese railroad network as no railroad bridges were built which crossed the river between Moulmein and Martaban the former on the river's southern bank and the latter to the opposite on the northern bank.

Thus, ferries were needed as an alternative connecting system. A bridge was not built until the Thanlwin Bridge carrying both regular road and railroad traffic was constructed between and Hellfire Pass in the Tenasserim Hills was a particularly difficult section of the line to build: it was the largest rock cutting on the railway, it was in a remote area and the workers lacked proper construction tools during building.

The Australian, British, Dutch and other Allied prisoners of war, along with Chinese, Malay, and Tamil labourers, were required by the Japanese to complete the cutting. Sixty-nine men were beaten to death by Japanese guards in the twelve weeks it took to build the cutting, and many more died from cholera , dysentery , starvation , and exhaustion. After the war, the remains of most of the war dead were moved from former POW camps, burial grounds and lone graves along the rail line to official war cemeteries.

Kanchanaburi War Cemetery , in the city of Kanchanaburi, contains the graves of 6, personnel comprising:. A memorial at the Kanchanaburi cemetery lists 11 other members of the Indian Army, who are buried in nearby Muslim cemeteries. Chungkai War Cemetery , near Kanchanaburi, has a further 1, war graves. The remains of United States personnel were repatriated. Of the US personnel forced to work on the railway, died. The Americans were called the Lost Battalion as their fate was unknown to the United States for more than two years after their capture.

Several museums are dedicated to those who perished building the railway. They can find the stories they need to, and they bring themselves to stories. This is the first time the child has encountered it. Do not discourage children from reading because you feel they are reading the wrong thing.

And not everyone has the same taste as you. We need our children to get onto the reading ladder: anything that they enjoy reading will move them up, rung by rung, into literacy. And the second thing fiction does is to build empathy. When you watch TV or see a film, you are looking at things happening to other people. Prose fiction is something you build up from 26 letters and a handful of punctuation marks, and you, and you alone, using your imagination, create a world and people it and look out through other eyes. You get to feel things, visit places and worlds you would never otherwise know.

You learn that everyone else out there is a me, as well. Empathy is a tool for building people into groups, for allowing us to function as more than self-obsessed individuals. I was in China in , at the first party-approved science fiction and fantasy convention in Chinese history.
