“Even though it may not feel this way right now,” writes CareNote author Nancy Stout, a nurse and chaplain, “time, and your own efforts, will begin to heal your heart. You can achieve a sense of peace after loss. Here are some steps that have helped me through the first year of the loss of a very dear friend.” This booklet will be a source of strength, hope, and peace as bereaved persons turn to it for help in that uniquely painful first year after a loved one’s death.
