"Kitchen Table Wisdom " by Rachel Naomi Remen is a book I just finished that I found very helpful. Short writings so easy to just read a few pages. Lots of insights to ponder

"Forever Ours" by Janis Amatuzio. She's a pathologist/coronor in my area. I've heard her speak twice - she's very powerful.

"Dancing in Limbo" by Glenna Halverson-Boyd

These are 3 I can think of right now that have been helpful to mr. I'm also writing down others suggested on this thread.

Sherry, just reading this thread has been a comfort to me this night. I truly have the same thoughts, feelings, questions as you expressed and would like to be able to talk openly about them.

I recall a verse in Jeremiah that give me comfort: "For I kno
w the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and inot for evul, To give you a future and a hope." (I hope I wrote that correctly)
