Grief & Loss

My husband and I, on our 10-Year Wedding Anniversary, at the Francis Ford Coppola Winery

For those of you who do not know, my husband passed away suddenly in his sleep in early August 2015. I am in deep loss and grief, but I managed to record an episode of my radio show, Spilling Rubies, that focuses on this difficult time as I navigate this great loss.

I want to write more about this process, but for now, these are some great resources for your own grief process:

• A Field Guide to Getting Lost by Rebecca Solnit

• Megan Devine’s Refuge in Grief 

• The Sun Magazine interview with Francis Weller, called The Geography of Sorrow: Francis Weller on Navigating Our Loses by Tim McKee

• The poetry of John O’Donohue

• How to Be a Friend in Deed by Bruce Feiler in the New York Times

• 12 Things to Know About the First Year of Grieving Someone You Can’t Live Without by Laurie Costanza in Elephant Magazine
