    I hope you are able to find what you're looking for. I know, for me, time was the only thing that truly helped with the grief when I lost my father. It's been over twenty years for me, believe me you are not alone.

    I can't recall the title of a book that helped me years ago, so I'll look through my book case and get back to you on this one. In the meantime, know that you're in my prayers....
    Blessings,

    You are most certainly not alone. I didn't read any books to help me come to terms with losing my Dad but I found a lot of solace and support here. There are websites for those of us who have lost parents if you do a google search.

    Can I just say that your bereavement is still so recent that your pain will still be very raw.......give yourself time to grieve.....
