This is a memoir of the author's emotional journey during the first year after her husband's death. As milestone holidays pass, the memoir traces the progress of a woman facing the great alone, through the depths of sorrow, resurrection of happy memories of a long marriage, and onward to reinvention of a new life without her husband. The pages deal with philosophical questions as well as how the mundane tasks of day to day life are now different. This book may give solace to those going through what the author experienced. What is normal after a spouse is suddenly ripped from your life? There is no normal. There is only what is right for you.
