5.0 out of 5 stars a helpful companion at a time when we need one the most, November 9, 1998
By dougcsmith@juno.com (Charleston, WV) - See all my reviews
Ms. McIntee's book is more a living companion than a collection of papers. The book walks with you as you travel the journey of grieving. It holds your hand. It shows you empathy. It helps you travel the journey, holding a light to guide you along the way. It gives you practical advice, words of comfort. It's there to allow you to travel your own journey at your own pace, being supportive of you whereever you might be. - Doug Smith
