SOME READER COMMENTS
"I hope we are able to lead lots of widows to Living with Loss. I see it as the Widow Bible." Taryn Davis, Founder of the (AWP) American Widow Project.
"I am so glad that your book is back in print. I had given it to a friend about 15 years ago. Then I looked for it and couldn't find it. You are a compassionate writer. Thank you for sharing your words with those who need it so badly." Brenda Schaffer
"Thirteen years ago, after the death of my husband, I happened to find this little book, "Living With Loss". I had no idea how this little book was going to be so valuable to me in my first year (and beyond) living without my husband, and best friend. It is now my little treasure. It still sits on my book case with the sticky note tabs on my favorite pages. Thank you Elle for this book... It's the little miracle book that every grieving widow needs to have!!" Carole Hunter, your greatest fan!
"Thank you for writing this wonderful book. About 11 years ago, I lost my husband suddenly. A good friend of mine gave me your book and I can honestly tell you that it helped me through some of my darkest times. Linda Maldonado
"Living With Loss was given to me after I lost my husband to cancer. I passed it on to another and have since purchased many more to give to others. I read an entry each day and found connections beyond belief. Along with prayers, family, friends, and a wonderful support group, this book was a great savior." S. Watson
