Healing After Loss

I wish I had copied my comments from another purchase so I could paste them here.This book has been comforting to me and the person I gave one to for the painful journey we are going through after losing family members. The writer talks to my heart, my hurts, suggesting insights for me personally. Each day's reading can be meaningful no matter how long we have been trying to deal with a death.

I lost my wife just over a month ago… this was recommended by the bereavement counsellor. I started reading a week after she passed… from day 1 I found this book very helpful. Each passage presented each day seamed to fit the progress or day I was having. This daily read has helped me in the early days of my grief and I have bought an other copy for our daughter. I would strongly recommend this book. The short daily entries are easy to get through and just enough to ease my mind. Thank you.

It is what is says it is - a guide for the grieving. With short but profound thoughts for each day. Highly recomended, beautifully written and very helpful.

This is a classic book, that provides some solace and words express the loss over 365 days, and we can repeat as the healing is unending...but the printer, William Morrow (an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers) shows no appreciation of reading a book - for every page one has to prise the book at the binder to read the words at the inner edges (do see the image). The printer has reduced a 5-Star content-book to a 2-star reading experience - a disgrace to the dignity of reading!!!

Bought for someone who had just lost their spouse it is proving to be a genuine source of inspiration and comfort. Very strongly recommended
