"Dr. Rando's book should help anyone who has survived the pain of this kind of loss and is trying to adjust to a new world without his loved one."--Art Linkletter
Book Description
Mourning the death of a loved one is a process all of us will go through at one time or another. But wherever the death is sudden or anticipated, few of us are prepared for it or for the grief it brings. There is no right or wrong way to grieve; each person's response to loss will be different. Now, in this compassionate, comprehensive guide, Therese A. Rando, Ph.D., bereavement specialist and author of Loss And Anticipatory Grief, leads you gently through the painful but necessary process of grieving and helps you find the best way for yourself.
Whether the death was sudden of expected, from accident, illness, suicide, homicide, or natural causes, Dr. Rando will help you learn to:
Understand and resolve your grief.
Talk to children about death.
Resolve unfinished business.
Take care of yourself.
Accept the help and support of others.
Get through holidays and other difficult times of the year.
Plan funerals and personal bereavement rituals.
How To Go On Living With Someone You Love Dies also includes a comprehensive resource listing and a chapter on finding professional help and support groups.
There is no way around the pain of loss, but there is a way through it. Dr. Rando offers the solace, comfort, and guidance to help you accept your loss and move into your new life without forgetting your treasured past.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Very academic book,
By A Customer
This review is from: How To Go On Living When Someone You Love Dies (Paperback)
I have lost my mother four months ago. I was desperately looking for words of confort and also ways to understand my feelings and what I was going through. Even though I consider it an excellent book, it lacks something important for us mourners, the spiritual part. However if you are looking for a book that explains in a scientific way the feelings and emotions one can go through this is a good book. But again, it would be better to be read with another book that gives confort during such a tought time.

a big help for a difficult time,
By A Customer
This review is from: How To Go On Living When Someone You Love Dies (Paperback)
I found this book to be really helpful. I normally don't read"self-help" books, but after the loss of my Mom I needed some guidelines; something to help me figure out if all my feelings were normal, or if I might be headed in the wrong direction. It also helped me to understand what other family members were going through. The only thing I didn't like was the book title. I think if I had gone to a book store, I wouldn't have chosen it. But by being able to read other reviews here, I picked this book, and it was a good choice. I definitely recommend this for anyone trying to cope with a loss.

Excellent resource for the grieving person,
This review is from: How To Go On Living When Someone You Love Dies (Paperback)
I have read numerous grief books, but this is one of my favorites. I underlined some passages in the section about how to keep the loved one "alive" appropriately. Seven months after losing someone I dearly loved, I'm still working through my grief. I pick up this book from time to time. For other situations, I also recommend Carol Staudacher's book on "Men and Grief." If I'd had that book several years ago when my late friend suddenly lost his daughter, I might have been able to help him more.
