"In
The Widow's Journey, Ms. Wright, a teacher of English and a student of
psychology, writes with rare honesty and insight about her entry into
a desolate new world, her survival strategies, and her search for a road
toward healing. Her unique self-awareness, her creative mental energy,
and her inclusion of other widows' stories combine to provide a valuable
guide and support for widows everywhere."
--John B. Scofield, M.D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Indiana University
School of Medicine
"The author does an excellent
job of composing a really compact book of facts about what to expect from
someone who has been there. I was amazed at all she covered. I will definitely
use it in my Bereavement groups."
-M. Kopecky, B.S.N., M.T.S., Bereavement Facilitator and Chaplain
"As a social worker,
I believe The Widow's Journey can be helpful to women and men who have
been left alone because of the loss of a spouse. The author gives practical
help from her own painful experience to aid others in their journey back
to emotional health."
--Kay E. Wilson, M.S.W.
"The Widow's Journey
has many things in it that might help someone going through what the author
went through. As a man who lost his wife last year, I feel it is as pertinent
for a widower as it is for a widow." -- Bill
Fountain, M.B.A
"I highly recommend
The Widow's Journey. I recognized all the feelings I went through after
my husband's death, and it was comforting to know I was not alone with
these feelings. Although you may never get over the loss of your spouse,
you can discover how to get on with your life. -- Kirsten Grosz,
R.N.
"Everybody needs
to read this book!" -- Adell
Carlton, Educational Consultant
"I loved this
book. It is honest, insightful, practical, and very readable. This book
contains information every woman should know BEFORE she may be in this
situation." -- Marianne Spinola, R.N.
"This book is
a good read and helpful for anyone who has faced, or will one day face,
the loss of the most important person in his/her life. Although intended
to help widows, I would recommend it heartily as counsel and/or preparation
for wives, husbands, and widowers as well. Death
transcends age and gender." -- Deanna
