Losing Katy: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Living Grief
"With elegance and sparseness of words, Losing Katy: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Living Grief is a poetic illustration of grief in action. The beauty of this book is in how it brings love and compassion to grief and suffereing, life to death, creativity to dying, generosity to loss, and hope to despair. At its core, Losing Katy a heartbreaking, heartfelt testiment to what it means to love - and to live that love in the face of world-shattering loss."
