Dealing with the loss of a loved one is never easy. While the deceased rest in peace, it’s often not the case for the loved ones left behind. Grieving is a normal and healthy reflex, and there are healthy ways to come out from the grief phase. ''Comfort in Sorrow: Living After the Death of a Loved One'' by David C. McGee helps the reader to see that grief is very individualistic and needs to be expressed in a healing way, and not shoved in a closet.

Until Death Do Us Part

The covenant in marriage is “until death do us part.” The covenant is complete, but the desire to continue the relationship is still there. Our loving relationships in which we invest ourselves in others and they in us—these important life attachments—feel like they will go on forever, but abruptly, they have ended. “Will I ever be happy again?” The answer is yes, but happiness is based on happenings. Joy is that which resides in the heart. When a spouse dies, there are many areas to be worked through and, in many cases, the list is overwhelming. Remember, in any relationship, there are two individuals learning to live as one. There were the duties that one was better at than the other. When one dies, all of his or her duties now fall upon the survivor. There is a reason we gave the duties away. We never liked them or never wanted to learn. Now we have to learn how these things are done. One widow explained, “I get angry at him. He always put gas in the car. Now, fifty-four years later, I am pulling into a gas station and have no idea where the gas tank is located.” Life is learning to live with, and now without, someone. —David C. McGee, Comfort in Sorrow

Grieving can produce a similar feeling: No matter how hard we try, we cannot get back to yesterday. We cannot change the past, only deal with the present. —David C. McGee, Comfort in Sorrow

★★★★★ 5 Star Customer Review

I'll admit I'm prejudiced but Uncle Dave is our families' go to guy when it comes to grieving. He has helped us all over the years. Led the service after my brother committed suicide and helped us to remember the important things about him. I have read the book and it covers all the parts of grieving we need to think about. The book is thought provoking, informative and surprisingly hopeful and uplifting at the end. Excellent for a grief group bible study. —Ann C. Meyer, Amazon Customer

The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief - But the pain of grief is only a shadow when compared with the pain of never risking love.

Hillary Stanton Zunin

[davidcmcgee-blog]

Grief is multidirectional; it is this pulling backward to the past and pushing forward to the future, downward in our emotions and upward in faith. We are constantly fluctuating somewhere amid the four. Early in the grieving process, we spend a lot of time in the past while trying to adjust to the present. Further along, we spend more time thinking about the future than the past and adjusting to the present. Sometime in the early weeks or months of grief comes the awareness of life gradually flowing in a downward direction, when people often say, “I feel like this is getting worse.” No matter what is done, life is not as good as we think it should be; in fact, it feels worse than the day before. The loss reality becomes greater. We wonder if there is something wrong with us. Will there be a bottom? The answer is yes—there will be a bottom to the grief experience, and it was not at the time of the death or in the days after the funeral. The bottom comes at some point in those months, or longer, following death, when we realize that our loved ones are not coming home. One of the hardest moments in the grief experience is when we come face to face with this reality: “They are not coming back.” —David C. McGee, Comfort in Sorrow

We unfairly tell ourselves, I can handle this alone, This loss is no different than other losses in life, which were “toughed out,” Keep a stiff upper lip, nose to the grindstone, shoulder to the wheel, I can do this myself. Grief is not about making the journey alone, nor is it about toughing it out. It’s not about denial of feelings or pushing on through the difficult times as if nothing happened. Grief is not about being so busy that you have no time to think. —David C. McGee, Comfort in Sorrow

We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.

Kenji Miyazawa

[davidcmcgee-blog]

In Comfort in Sorrow, author David C. McGee speaks to his readers in such a calming and compassionate tone in reassurance that it’s okay to feel however it is you feel. It is encouraging to learn there are people that completely understand from a genuine, yet empathetic perspective to inform that everyone will heal. One thing that stood out from the very beginning, is the mention of time and how there’s no right or wrong length of time to overcoming grief. As stated, grief is an individual experience that cannot be classified into groups of people that feel the same way. Although similar and in terms of various initial reactions, there’s no actual comparison in any other aspect such as grief.
