Facing the death of your loved one, accept that the wide range of emotions you may feel throughout this process-from shock to sadness, anger, and hopelessness-are valid. ... Give yourself permission to grieve, to be at a loss for words, to cry, to scream, and to feel happy when it arises.
This book is a beautifully written memoir that faces the realities of a loved one dying. In the months after his loss, the author wrote about their time together (falling in love, their shortcomings, her illness, and how they made each other better). He recounts his relationship with his partner--not as a saint, but as a person. Then he describes his struggle to go on without her. He also shares an intimate, soul-searching look at love and loss. With exquisite honesty, his story is inevitably full of pain but also has great warmth and beauty.
