Nobody tells you that the paperwork arrives while you are still unable to finish a sentence. Or that the second year can be harder than the first.
There are a great many books about grief and remarkably few about Tuesday afternoon - the bank that will not speak to you, the wardrobe you cannot open, the friends who have gone quiet, and the birthday coming up that you have no idea what to do with.
One hundred practical tips, each a page or two, each ending with one thing you can do today. Written for the person actually in it, not about grief in general.
InsideEvery tip ends with one small action, because in the first year the difficulty is rarely understanding what to do. It is being able to begin.
Set in large, clear type. Practical throughout, with a plain word about when grief needs professional help and where to find it.
There is no schedule you are behind on, and no point at which you were supposed to be over it.
