    By coincidence, I was just reminded of a wonderful book: "I Wasn't
    Ready to Say Goodbye," the only book that I know of that is
    specifically about sudden, unexpected death. 

    I can recommend it whole heartedly to Dale and to anyone else.

          January 18, 2006 * Received because you purchased I Wasn't
          Ready to Say Goodbye: Surviving, Coping and Healing After the
          Sudden Death of a Loved One. 

          When Pamela and I wrote I Wasn't Ready to Say Goodbye and saw
          its release in 2000, we didn't realize how many lives we would
          touch through our words. Over the years, this book has become a
          mainstay, top recommendation and bestseller in its category.
          The book was inspired by the sudden death of my older brother
          in 1997. He experienced anyphylatic shock after a bee sting and
          died within minutes. At the time, there were not any books for
          those facing sudden or tragic loss. 

          Pamela had experienced tragic loss in her own life, and the
          two of us set out to create the comprehensive resource we
          wished we would have had. It was a difficult and laboring 2 and
          1/2 years of writing. The feedback we have received has really
          made a difference in my life - and I am pleased that we pushed
          through these difficult times to create a resource for others. 

          In 2003 we created a companion workbook: I Wasn't Ready to Say
          Goodbye Workbook: Surviving, Coping and Healing After the
          Sudden Death of a Loved One (Workbook) I recommend that anyone
          reading the book, pick up a copy of the workbook as well. The
          two really compliment each other nicely. 

          After co-authoring I Wasn't Ready to Say Goodbye, many readers
          asked: "What's next? What can I do to rebuild now that I have
          survived this difficult transition?" 

          In 2003, I released a book very dear to my heart and a
          companion workbook, Grief Steps. Of everything I have written,
          it is the book I am most proud of as it truly looks at
          "integrating with life after a loss" in a fresh way that has
          worked for many. Grief Steps: 10 Steps to Regroup, Rebuild and
          Renew After Any Life Loss. When you are ready, I would love to
          share the messages of Grief Steps with you as well. 

Wishing you peace and healing,
Brook Noel
