My journey to writing this book began unexpectedly when I became a widow early in life, caring for toddler children. This profound loss led me through a tumultuous path of grief, where I not only mourned the loss of my spouse but also navigated the complexities of parenting alone. During this challenging time, I experienced the additional sorrow of losing friends who struggled to understand or support my grieving process. This isolation highlighted for me the critical need for empathy and support in the midst of grief.
Having attended churches where prayers predominantly focused on preventing early widowhood, I realized a significant gap in prayer support for those already experiencing loss and grief. Yet, through my own journey of mourning, I discovered a deeper purpose—a transformation from mourning to finding meaning and renewed faith.
Led by the Spirit to find meaning in mourning (or better said as trading one for the other), I embarked on a journey that eventually led me to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in mental health care and grief management. This professional path allowed me to integrate my personal experiences with grief into my clinical practice, providing holistic care to individuals facing similar challenges.
