Widowhood: A User's Manual

This is not a book that any woman wishes to read, but it is a "must-read" for the new widow. It explains and helps with the thousand and one things that must be seen to yesterday, following the death of a spouse. You will find annotated checklists to help keep it all together, as well as tips and ideas the new widow may need to just get through it all. This is a situation no woman (or man) should have to face. It may be the most difficult experience of one's life. The author lost her husband in 2015, and this is the result. It is, in her words, "a labor of love." It is not necessarily a book about grief. It is, as it says, a "user's guide." What to do first and how to do it. The book was written over a two-and-a-half-year period and covers many of the emotions that will be felt, as well as the day-to-day tasks that need doing no matter what. Hopefully you will never need this book, but if so, you will find it invaluable
