About this title

Synopsis

"Beyond Loss: A Practical Guide Through Loss to a Meaningful Life" by Lilly Singer, Margaret Sirot and Susan Rodd takes readers from the first week after the death of a loved one through the next month, year, and even the next several years. "Beyond Loss" is a very useful guide to starting life over just when it seems impossible to go on.

The authors interweave specific, helpful advice with their own experiences as widows and heartwarming case histories from men and women describing their moving reactions to loss and their progress through the stages of grief to a full and meaningful life. Included are sections on how to find out what your finances are, when to contact a lawyer, and an immensely valuable chart showing exactly what needs to be done and when it needs to be done.

"Beyond Loss" is based on the programs created by Lilly Singer for the Bereavement Center of the Westchester Jewish Community Services that have helped thousands of people of all ages work through their grief and begin to rebuild their lives. It is an invaluable book that will carry its readers through grief and beyond.
