5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable Resource, October 2, 2000

By 

The Rev. Rudolf and Barbara Devik (Tacoma, WA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Widowing: Surviving the First Year (Paperback)

Widowing, Surviving the First Year, belongs in every church and doctor's office as a ready handout. In no nonsense style it offers a framework for dealing with the trauma of loosing a spouse. It covers the 'how tos' which bother us. How to cope, to grieve, to understand and to take the next steps to getting on with life are all covered in practical detail.

The book is sensative and supporting.

It is also a book for men who are living through the loss of a wife.

Professionally we give this book 5 stars. As a couple that have both lost partners we can only add our thanks to the many who praise this book.

By A Customer

This review is from: Widowing: Surviving the First Year (Paperback)

This book is so helpful that it should be given to a new widow as soon as possible! They need it when all their family or friends have gone and they are coping all alone. A great gift.
