WestBow Press Love, Loss, Grief, and Moving On: A Widow's Story from the Heart

Nothing could stop Doug and Linda Hulsizer from marrying on November 3, 1990. Despite their age differences, Doug and Linda were deeply in love. For the next six years, they were blissfully happy, never arguing and always praising God. But everything changed in late 1996 when Doug was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer. In a candid account of her poignant journey before, during, and after her husband's diagnosis, Linda begins by sharing a glimpse into their beautiful relationship as they met, joined their lives, and walked through his cancer treatments together, bravely facing each task and obstacle just as they always had. After detailing how Doug's battle ultimately led to his death, Linda discloses how she subsequently learned a new way to live, sought therapy, and handled different challenges and responsibilities. In the final chapters, Linda details what it was like to move on with life and find strength in her faith, in being a survivor, in the memories of good times, and in the comforting knowledge that our angels are always with us. Love, Loss, Grief, and Moving On shares a widow's courageous story about her husband, his journey through terminal cancer, and how she learned to lean on God and herself to begin anew after his passing.
