"Nothing can prepare you for the death of a loved one, and nothing is ever the same after. How do you even begin to live after loss? When author Missy Buchanan lost her beloved husband of 43 years, she was devastated. As she looked for meaningful resources to help her with her grief, Missy found most books too long or heady. So, she decided to process her grief in her own way ... by writing personal notes to her husband, unfiltered and straight from her heart.

In this poignant collection of reflections from that first year, Missy opens the window wide onto her personal journey and all the raw emotions that bubbled up from day to day. From family holidays to everyday tasks such as pumping gas or taking out the trash, Missy's tender notes resonate with the shared experiences of grief, offering a guiding light and true companion for your own journey. Along the way, she also affirms that faith is not lacking when you don't feel ""strong"" and that being vulnerable can help support the healing process.

Feeling Your Way Through Grief is an invitation to embrace the complexities of loss, find solace in genuine emotions, and embark on a faithful journey toward healing. Reflection questions at the end of each chapter invite you to explore your own emotions more deeply, gently guiding you along your unwanted journey of grief."
