Healing After Loss: Daily Meditations For Working Through Grief

Rating:
Summary: Exceptional!
Review: When I lost my father suddenly a year and five months ago I lost my best friend. Shortly after my Dad's passing, I was walking through Boarders and Books looking for some solace. With my hands full of other "guides" that I never got into, I stumbled upon this book. I have read a passage daily for the last seventeen months and will continue to for some time to come. This book offers an uplifting look at loss. It has helped me to deal with the most difficult of days with grace and hope. Over the last year, I have literally ordered around 25 copies to give to friends who have also lost loved ones. It is poignant and positive. I had never heard of Martha Whitmore Hickman before, but she has truly touched my life.

Summary: Inspirational, beneficial when "in the mud" of grief
Review: When in grief, regardless of whether it is new or some time ago, one needs words of wisdom that cut through the pain. This little book speaks volumes. I highly recommend it for one's self if one has not read it and also to give it as a gift to another heart in pain. For one suffering a fresh wound this little book will begin the healing process; for one who is still hurting, this will give comfort and peace. At the beginning of a fresh wound little makes sense, one has difficulty focusing, but this author beautifully captures one's attention with sensitivity and tenderness. To the author, Thank You
