Resetting
Susan B. Hassmiller
Ratgeber / Gesundheit
Beschreibung
A wife and medical professional reflects on the loss of her husband in a series of reflections that reveal the emotional stages of grief and healing. Although grief and loss are universal human conditions, the idea of losing those we love is still greatly feared, largely undiscussed, and certainly not prepared for. It is no wonder people feel alone and isolated in their feelings and thoughts when loss comes to them. Longtime nurse and Red Cross volunteer Susan Beth Hassmiller is no stranger to death. Not only has she experienced the suffering of death alongside her patients, but she was blindsided by the physical and emotional toll of loss in her personal life when her husband was fatally injured in an accident. Resetting is written in a daily diary format in which Susan opens a very private window to the actual feelings and thoughts she lived through during her grief process. Raw and gripping, Resetting reveals a profound understanding of the human experience of death. By sharing her perspective as a wife, widow and medical professional, Susan helps those who going through grief gain a new perspective and a greater understanding of death, while also offering ideas on how to help those who are experiencing bereavement—from words to say to providing support.
