Living With Loss was given to me after I lost my husband to cancer. I passed it on to another and have since purchased many more to give to others. I read an entry each day and found connections beyond belief. Along with prayers,family, friends, and a wonderful support group, this book was a great savior.

A comforting companion as widows live through the first 365 days following the loss of their spouse. This book reflected the same feelings that I was experiencing. The words supported my thoughts and helped me travel through the valley of loneliness and grief. A gift that should be given to any woman faced with the overwhelming burden of loss.

When my mother was widowed in her 40's, this book was a godsend for her. I in turn purchased it for a friend of mine, recently widowed in her 40's as well. She said it was the best gift she received and it helped her immensely during the grieving process. I now want to purchase it for another widowed friend and am dismayed to hear it is not in print. I am hopeful it will continue to be printed as its format and easy, brief daily insights, make it comfortable and manageable to read one thought a day to get through the initial shock of being alone.

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
Fantastic Book April 11, 2002

With the loss of my husband at age 44, I was devastated. This book was a gift and I read it everyday. I have never read anything that described my exact feelings as this book did. I vowed to give it to every new widow afterwards that I knew personally. I cannot believe it is out of print. This book need to be on the shelves for all widows..as the previous reviewer wrote, it is just enough daily reading for the troubled, confused mind. I love this book!
