About this listen

The greatest fear I had during my grieving was that I was losing control, going crazy, and might make decisions that would harm myself, my family, and my friends. This included suicidal thoughts, which scared the hell out of me. I was desperate to find answers. Quickly, I found those answers would be hard to find, as resources for widowers are minimal and often of dubious value.

In Widower to Widower, I've compiled the most vital information I could find on the widower experience into one book, so the listener does not have to search as hard as I had to do. I include many critical issues not addressed in other publications. This can be raw and brutal at times, much like the grieving process itself. Widower to Widower is woven around blogs I wrote during and after my wife's passing. This storytelling element allows the listener to be in the moment with me during the grieving experience and to see that their own experience is not uncommon.

As I've learned from hundreds of fellow widowers, mine was not a unique journey but was similar, in many respects, to their journey as well. I am the expert only on my own experience. Each widower's experience is unique, but there are common threads and shared experiences. We must each find our own path while learning what we can from each other. This second edition includes additional research, insights, resources, and a men's grief group guide. Testimonies are included in the first section of this second edition.

Limited scope

The authors, limited scope of really only addressing the death of the spouse after a long, protracted illness, completely ignores the special needs of people who had sudden unexpected death of a spouse from either an accident, medical event, suicide, etc.

Good perspective

I found the book insightful for me a widower at three months. It helps you to look at things thru someone else’s eyes.

Review

Excellent. Since I am a widower: Read it/listen to it if you are a widower or widow. Very helpful.
