"In the health care profession, we see women put themselves last in a crisis and their health deteriorates because of it. This book is a wonderful collection of "life after loss" experiences and how women not only survive, but find a way to thrive." - Natalie Treadwell, Founder of Food For Life Healthy Lifestyle "Each testimony gives different insight and understanding into the transition of wife to widow. These testimonies layered together under one cover; offer a needed comfort to a new widow." - Todd D Soper, President, Todd D Soper Financial Services Inc. "Embodied in each of these women is the strength that it takes to overcome adversity and without question they teach us all the meaning of resilience and survival and they do so in their own words." - Tracy Friars, Lay Worship Leader and Human Resource Consultant
