Hi Steph. I am so sorry for your loss and your overwhelming sorrow right now. I lost both of my parents within 10 months of each other years ago. If that wasn't enough, 2 years after them, i lost my daughter.
People gave me books on grief and not a one helped me. I remember so many sleepless nights and nothing helped. Talking to people about it, crying, writing, screaming, whatever helps you express how you're feeling and getting it out will help. And time helps some. I still cry for my loved ones and dream of them and miss them still. Just not as raw as it was.
Feel free to write me if you need someone to talk to anytime. I'd be glad to listen.
take care.

I'm afraid I don't know of any. As for the writing just write what you feel. Write the questions you have - with or without answers. Just let it all out, and if you wish, you can burn it after, but at least it's out of you for the time being.

If you have a sense of humor combined with grief, there' s a book called "Good Grief" about a lady who lost her husband and had to pick up and carry on. It deals with her grief but its also comical. I read it 4 times and just sent it to the goodwill, oops I should have held onto it.

start by writing letters to people
to your dad expressing your feeling and your anger and all
to God and all

I wish you had dropped me a note Stephanie, I always have time for you , you know, you usually post to my group and that is how I find you, I have a hard time getting around gather with all the changes, God Bless You, sweet Stephanie, Mark bought a book when Gloria died, I believe it is on Death and Dying, I don't know if he read it or not, but he is still grieving his wife, as I still grieve my daughter and husband, it just gets a bit better as time goes on, love you, Elsie
