Biographie de l'auteur

In 1997, Kay Long's husband of 27 years, died after a 9 month battle with cancer. Finding herself alone on a farm, living "3 miles from nowhere", in the large, log house they had built together, she was overwhelmed with grief. It took nearly a year of living through an emotional, downward spiral, before she decided what she wanted to do with the rest of her life. Within that year she moved to the City, sold the farm, and enrolled in university. At the age of 65 Kay received her Bachelor of Social Work degree and took a job as a counselor and group facilitator, working with women who were in crisis in their own lives. She currently writes a monthly column for a seniors' newspaper in Lethbridge, Alberta. This book, The Widow's Walk: A survivor's handbook, evolved from her monthly column. Kay says, "Helping others by sharing my experience my life meaning and focus."
