This book helped me work through my grief after my mom died

I am so thankful that I came across this book soon after my mother died. The book presents a daily reading for the one-year mourning period, with an insightful reading for the week. It also has space on each page to record personal thoughts. I followed the divisions in the book, reading a selection each day. The readings truly helped me deal with, and work through, my grief. And I occasionally recorded my thoughts when the readings really struck a chord in my heart. I don't know if I could have dealt with my mother's death without having had this "Mourner's Kaddish Companion" to gently guide me.
