Rate this book
Even if you had life all figured out, the loss of your husband puts you as the head of household and the only person responsible for your children. This book draws on proven processes and ideas on walking through the logistical, legal, financial, and emotional issues you may face as a widow and sole parent, as well as the psychology and neuroscience of moving through grief and moving on, explaining everything in a way that is easy to understand and apply. Having walked this journey, Michelle Hoffmann shares guidance on how to deal with the unthinkable, like removing your wedding ring, adjusting your social media, and finding the right surrogate to represent at the father-daughter dance. She shows you the ways to take care of yourself and your children while moving through grief and rebuilding your future.

In this book you’ll learn:
· The Top 10 things you need to do to avoid losing your assets, job and children.
· Techniques to support grieving children in the four areas where children are most vulnerable: peer groups, family unit, school, and community.
· The reasons you get stuck in grief and how to get through it.
· Tips to enjoy life’s celebrations and milestones without your spouse.
· How to support and comfort others while you are moving through your own grief and figuring out what happens next.
· Healthy coping strategies to communicate with and answer children’s questions.
