商品簡介
Have you ever wanted to tell someone the truth when they ask you "How ya doin"? You have just lost your spouse and they want to know how are you coping, and getting along in general. You always say, "good" and hoping that they don't press the subject. Between the covers of this book you will see how Doug was doing when no one was looking. What were the conflicts that he faced, what situations took place in his life as he tried to put the pieces back in place after he lost Lynne, his wife of 46 years, to pancreatic cancer. You will read his most personal feelings as he publishes the journal he kept all through her struggle with the cancer, including the day she died. You will maybe even laugh at some of the things he went through, like the time he tried to bake his favorite pie, from scratch. You will look through his eyes as he questions what heaven is like and what is Lynne doing now. This is not a self-help book, nor is it a guide in grief counseling. It is intended to show how one man survived the personal loss of his wife, and what happened in the year that followed. You will see what the significance of ONE is as he takes you along on his journey of living alone. You will even read a letter that Lynne wrote to him, one month after her death. You will probably say, "That is just how I feel" or "I know exactly what he is saying because I experienced the same thing." If so, this book may bring you comfort and self-understanding, that you are not alone in your feelings, in your world. As you ask yourself, "Does it get any easier; does it get any better" you may find the answer here. As Doug would say, "If you let it, it will."
