THE book on recovery from loss

How can you review a book which had no small part in saving your life. I lost my 36 year old, vibrant and beautiful wife to a hit and run (she was a pedestrian) and read dozens of books as part of my healing process. Many had to do with "griefwork", many were religious in nature and many more dealt with "Life after Death" and near death experiences. If I had to point out one book which had the most positive influence on me in the healing process and was the most comforting, it would have to be Mr. Tagliaferre and Dr. Harbaugh's book, Recovery from Loss. The pain and grief shared by Mr. T after the loss of his own wife after 35 years of marriage was so heartrendering and relevant to what I was going through, it felt at times as if he read my mind. Accompanied by the studies of Dr. Harbaugh, and the plain humanity of both these men makes this a 5 star book. There is griefwork, spirituality, the communion of man and the pain of a man in just the right proportions. If you are looking for a gift to someone who has recently lost a loved one, especially a spouse, or if that person is you, please go out and buy this book. You will be well pleased that you did.
