If you haven't read this yet, it's really good. Be sure to have the tissues ready, though.

For those of us who are widowed, what book or books have helped you with your grieving?
For me, after coming home from the hospital without my husband, I found I couldn't sleep. There seemed to be an aura or light beaming from a book on the bookshelf in our bedroom, it was the book, "Not My Will But Thine" from Elder Neal A. Maxwell.
That book helped me realize that I was not being punished and having my husband taken from me, but that the Lord had a plan for my husband, and that plan began that early morning.
The other item I read that helped me considerably was my husband's Patriarchal Blessing. Through repeated reading and prayer to understand why my husband was taken, I was able to have a better understanding of the plan for my husband as well as his mission on the other side of the veil.
