In My Good Grief, Cindyanne Kershaw tells how she learned to appreciate life again after the death of two husbands and her brother

CHESTER, Conn. (MMD Newswire) February 25, 2009 -- In My Good Grief: A Journey Through Joy and Sorrow, Cindyanne Kershaw chronicles how after grappling with death, cancer, alcoholism and AIDS in her family, she was able to process her grief and move on in life.

In My Good Grief, Kershaw uses stories and poems to express her unshakable belief in the goodness of life, the beauty of nature and the power of faith to transcend every sorrow. She believes that people were meant to love, and that sorrow can actually deepen the capacity for feeling and enrich lives.

Filled with quotes from Anne Lamott, Agatha Christie and more, My Good Grief is meant to be a testament to how and why writing can help one make sense of tragedy. The stories and the poems in My Good Grief aim to show how the blessings of family and friends can be a great healer. "We can survive grief and become stronger from the experience," says Kershaw. "My hope is that by reading my words, people will come to understand that grief is only a temporary dwelling place. Joy will always return if your heart is open to it."
