"My Journey of Love, Loss and Acceptance And questions without answers" is a story about the death of a loving, and much loved, husband and the myriad emotions that the author went through during the subsequent weeks and months of his passing.
She sought comfort for her bereavement in the pages of the bible and part of this manuscript describes the research she undertook of some of its passages. This work allowed her mind to stray from her grief, and, eventually over time, led her to peace and acceptance as she once again recalled what Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross had said:
"Death is simply the shedding of the physical body like the butterfly shedding its cocoon. It is a transition to a higher state of consciousness where you continue to perceive, to understand, to laugh, and to be able to grow."
