This review is from: Living With Loss (Days of Healing, Days of Change) (Paperback)
I am on month eight and enjoying every entry - I thought the book would be full of misery and "I miss him so" stuff, but instead it speaks to real issues of anger and going it alone - there are periodic opportunites to write letters to the missing spouse and all types of marriage relation-ships are covered.

This review is from: Living With Loss (Days of Healing, Days of Change) (Paperback)
This book was incalculably helpful to me as I walked numbly through the first year after my husband's death. I received many books from well-intentioned friends, but couldn't find much enthusiasm for reading much at a sitting. This book is in a "daily meditation" format, presenting one idea per day, on one page. This was not too much for my grief-stunned attention span, and dealt with real issues in direct language. I appreciated it so much. Now, 6 years later, I want to purchase it for a friend, and am shocked and dismayed to find it's out of print! I sincerely hope that whoever is responsible for that will reconsider.... I heartily recommend this book for all widows who want to remember, and to gently help themselves heal.

LIVING WITH LOSS,

This review is from: Living With Loss (Days of Healing, Days of Change) (Paperback)
THIS IS A WONDERFUL BOOK. I TOO, WAS UPSET WHEN I COULD NOT FIND IT WHEN I WANTED IT FOR A GIFT TO A RECENT WIDOW. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS SO TO THE POINT AND EVERYTHING I WAS FEELING. PLEASE BRING IT BACK
