A Journey Well Taken: Life After Loss

WilliamsThis book is a widow's journey through loss, grief and renewal. It is the author's personal struggle following the illness and death of her husband of twenty years. This story deals with a family's grief and the challenges faced by those left behind. It is a journey familiar to many in today's society where one spouse outlives the other. Despite challenges that arise when things fall apart, loss can help us uncover our own strength, purpose and dignity. This is a tribute to survival and renewal as loved ones redefine the family unit, minus one.

Personally, I found A Journey Well Taken to be an honest, courageous and ultimately uplifting account of one woman's journey through the uncharted territory of bereavement. It will prove a great source of comfort and support for those traveling a similar path.

But it's important to remember that most people who commit suicide told at least one person about what they were thinking of doing. Take all suicide threats seriously. While you can't make choices for another person or force them to get help, let them know that you're there and...
