Widowed
In 1989, Dr. Joyce Brothers's husband of more than thirty years, Dr. Milton Brothers, passed away. As a widow, Dr. Brothers found herself emotionally lost and alone, at sea in an ocean of grief -- until she dealt with her despair, overcame her loneliness, and, gradually, put her life back together again. In WIDOWED, Dr. Brothers shares this intimate journey and offers the knowledge she has gained along the way. In her personal, comforting way, Dr. Joyce Brothers describes the very real incidents and feelings that every woman who has lived through the death of a spouse will immediately recognize. Here is compassionate insight on confronting grief and loss, coping with the myriad emotions that bombard a widow, and handling the pain and self-pity that ultimately lead to change. This is the book you can turn to for support, strength, and, most importantly, a glimpse of hope. "Crammed with good advice, generously coated with genuine compassion, WIDOWED is must reading." -- The Pittsburgh Press.

Meditations for the Widowed (Gilgal Meditations Ser)
Meditations for the Widowed is a collection of one and two-page meditations written by 33 men and women from all walks of life whose spouses have died. The youngest authors are in their 20's, while the oldest is 79. Some of their articles deal with loneliness, anger and guilt. Others focus on specific problems the writers have faced like coming to grips with the "whys" and "what ifs," the need to find employment, learning to live alone, establishing a new life style, single parenting, handling major changes like moves, and coping with a diminished love of life. None of the authors imply their answer is the only right one to a problem. Instead they are saying, "This is what worked for me; maybe it will help you too.".
