Book excerpt: This is a true story. The names have been changed to protect some who requested the privacy. 1. The complete facts, otherwise, are to benefit and warn widows and widowers of what can happen when one is experiencing a time of the loss of a spouse and they are very vulnerable at the time. The romanticism one has during the grief time is not always a true love and human character can be very deceiving. The most destructive partner can have plans very much unsuspected by the other of controlling the life of the one they have devotedly asked to marry them. Prenuptials Are not always beneficial if one has the expertise to have this deleted later in the marriage. Or is able to convince the partner of voiding the agreement.

Book excerpt: Widowed is the true story of how our family lost my wife and her father. It is a deep and personal look at living with illness, realizing you can be left alone and having to make sense of the death of a spouse. Widowed contains excerpts of some of the most personal conversations, prayers and feelings I took part in before and after my wife passed away. In reading it, I hope you come to realize that no matter what life throws at you, you will be ok and that God will see you through any ordeal. No matter what lies Satan whispers in your ear or how bad things may seem, always remember that God truly does care. The author's bio is usually reserved for things dealing with the author, his greatest accomplishments and his writing credentials. However, I only found it a fitting tribute to give you the bio of my wife instead. Darla was born April 22, 1972. She was the middle child of her mother's five children. Some of her many personal achievements are that she was a talented pianist, a singer, a childcare provider, an administrative assistant, a property manager, a better than average cook, a wonderful listener and a quiet but brilliant speaker. She enjoyed crafting, reading and had an eclectic taste in music and movies. She was a natural beauty, with a great smile and an infectious laugh. If those that knew her were asked to give 5 things to describe her they would tell you: she was a great friend, a wonderful sister, a lovely daughter, an incredible wife and an amazing mother. Most importantly, she was very much loved.

Book excerpt: Offering hope that you can amend your shattered dreams, Amending Dreams-Reflections and Meditations of a Widow, offers personal reflections concerning feelings, thoughts, moods, problems, joys and discoveries that were stored in journals after the death of Joyce George's husband of 28 years. In addition to personal experiences generously shared with you, the author is Reiki II practitioner and also uses knowledge acquired from Inner Child Healing and Channeling for Self Healing workshops as healing suggestions. Biblical quotes provide spiritual reflection opportunities for most topics, including forgiving your spouse for dying; guilt experienced when going through your spouse's personal items; possible obsessive behavior; loneliness; grieving, and how to move on. Lastly, a prayer after each reading assists your finding words that simply may not come to mind just yet. Combined with an offering of gratitude, each prayer requests assistance from the Lord to guide your continuing transition into your new life. While this book is written for widows, it is beneficial for family, friends, co-workers of widows and widowers, as well as those in public service positions. It will spark an awareness and sensitivity for those enveloped in the stages of grief.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coming at a time of renewed interest in the developmental changes of the life cycle, Psychotherapy and the Widowed Patient is a rich resource that examines the impact of a spouse's death on an individual's mental health. Psychiatrists and psychoanalysts address a wide range of issues concerning loss, grief, and bereavement, and provide practical and creative approaches for both widowed persons and the helping professionals charged with treating their grief. Chapters in this compassionate volume discuss the characteristics of individuals who are more likely to seek professional help in coping with grief, widowhood as a time of growth and development, the value of openness instead of denial in dealing with death, the grieving process in young widowed spouses, the similarities of widowhood to separation and divorce, the role of dependency in how well widowed patients develop emotionally, and the role of loyalty in the process of grief. The more clinical chapters examine strategies for carrying out experiential psychotherapy with widowed patients, rational-emotive therapy, grief therapy, the effects of new perspectives on spousal bereavement on clinical practice, and aspects of bereavement response to loss, with a timeframe for viewing psychotherapeutic intervention. A review of the psychological literature regarding widowhood completes this comprehensive new book.

Book excerpt: From a certified life coach and a widow herself, a guide to processing grief and finding meaning and purpose after the death of a spouse. A warm hug for every widow navigating her grief, pain, and loss, and thinking she will never love her life again. Joann Filomena’s Widowed is not only a shared journey through loss, but also a roadmap for rebuilding a future that makes room for hope and happiness alongside pure and beautiful grief. Widows will discover exactly what it is they need in order to move forward, and even how to dream again. Not since Joan Didion’s The Year of Magical Thinking has there been a book of such honesty and passion about the unique experience that is widowhood—a time when most women feel acutely alone and wonder how to get through the pain and confusion of their great loss. A professionally certified life coach and weight loss coach, as well as producer and host of the Widow Cast and Weight Coach podcasts, Joann Filomena speaks widow to widow, having walked this path herself after the sudden loss of her husband.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming a widow is one of the most traumatic life events that a woman can experience. Yet, as this remarkable new collection reveals, each woman responds to that trauma differently. Here, forty-three widows tell their stories, in their own words. Some were widowed young, while others were married for decades. Some cared for their late partners through long terminal illnesses, while others lost their partners suddenly. Some had male partners, while others had female partners. Yet each of these women faced the same basic dilemma: how to go on living when a part of you is gone. Widows’ Words is arranged chronologically, starting with stories of women preparing for their partners’ deaths, followed by the experiences of recent widows still reeling from their fresh loss, and culminating in the accounts of women who lost their partners many years ago but still experience waves of grief. Their accounts deal honestly with feelings of pain, sorrow, and despair, and yet there are also powerful expressions of strength, hope, and even joy. Whether you are a widow yourself or have simply experienced loss, you will be sure to find something moving and profound in these diverse tales of mourning, remembrance, and resilience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widows and Orphans is a story for readers of all ages. Protagonist Crosby Hoggard, a literary cousin of Tom Sawyer, has trouble at Andrew Johnson Junior High School in Monte Vista, California. Big trouble for a twelve-year-old. He's been labeled "difficult" by school officials. And whenever his class reads a story, Crosby""to the teacher's chagrin""turns into a junior psychologist, analyzing the dubious details of the superficial plots and of the dangerously innocent lives of the characters. Crosby is also the daily target of the pimply-faced playground bully, Clyde Winston, who always sits victoriously on his victims. But all is not bleak, for on his way home after school one hot day in June, Crosby comes to a sudden, personal decision about his life, which he shares with his classmate and truest friend, Maria Lopez. What Crosby doesn't know is that his resolution will change him in ways he never anticipated, not only at school, but also at home and church. What happened in Crosby's life three years ago that set him on an intense and voracious reading jag? Why is it that the people around Crosby seem to know something about his life that Crosby himself refuses to think about? In the story, a series of remarkable circumstances brings Crosby face to face with the secret of his own past, and he is confronted with his destiny, which is linked to a visiting preacher, an old man who had an encounter with him three years ago. And that encounter is now about to catch up to Crosby for an unexpected, jolting climax.
