And just a reminder for everybody - check your local public library for books. Mine had several titles on grieving. If you have a library card, you can borrow the books without having to pay for them. I also used our library for DVDs, which also helped save some money.
Thanks again for the list. Love and Hugs, Martha
Another book that helped me and I would suggest is 'Heart-Broken Open' by Kristine Carlson. When I could no longer focus on the words in a book, I found journaling my thoughts, feelings and frustration were helpful.
