By far, the most heart-wrenching event one can experience in the journey through life is the loss of one's spouse. This is made even more acute if it happens following an extended period of caregiving. It leaves one emotionally, physically, spiritually, and sometimes even financially devastated.
While this can often be said for losing a child, parent, or sibling, the primary life impact will be if it's your spouse. Following this event, one is left bereft and asking themselves, "How can I go on?" and feeling, really, that one's life is over.
Going on in the days, weeks, months, and years ahead will certainly not be easy, but there are reasons why one must go on--if for no other reason than for those around you who love you. But you also need to do it for yourself.
The purpose of this book is to, with empathy, take one through the grieving journey and bring one to and through the process of "getting back into the stream of life." You may come then to find there are and will be reasons to do so--and that there is hope. At the center of it all is our mighty, loving God and Creator, who most definitely wants you back!
