Healing, after the death of a loved one, a divorce or any life-altering situation, is a deeply personal experience and by its very nature—a lonely process. Grieving are the sentiments and emotions connected with loss. Mourning is the expression of those feelings. In order for healing to take place, we must acknowledge our loss and give ourselves permission to mourn. As we release our associations and dreams connected to a person or lifestyle that is no longer a part of our lives, we open ourselves to new possibilities. Eventually, the memories that are now painful, will become memories that we can cherish and treasure.

The decision to write my grief recovery books, A Time to Heal and Life Interrupted, came about as a result of several deaths in our extended family. Three family members (mom, step-dad and sister-in-law) passed away within a ten-month period! Since then we’ve lost 4 others. I was fortunate to be by my mother's bedside and able to hold her in my arms when she died. My voice and my arms were the last earthly contact she had before receiving her spiritual body and entering into God’s presence. Although I did not hear divine music or see angelic beings, I nevertheless felt His presence sustaining me. Despite the sadness for the things left unsaid or the actions not taken, I knew she was at the feet of God…beyond all earthly needs and desires.
I've written a story titled "Life is for Living" about this experience. Please click here to read it.
