l, loving parents and a brother I loved deeply. As an adult, I had a great career, a caring and devoted husband, two wonderful children, a loving, extended family, and great friends. All that changed in 2021, after experiencing the unfathomable loss of three immediate family members within a few months of each other. My trust in the Lord to work everything out for me was shaken. It has been two years since those horrific events, and my grief journey has been a series of ups and downs. Along the way, the Lord has revealed many things to me; my faith has become even stronger, and I now understand the Lord never left my side. This book serves as a testimony of my grief journey and a journal for others who have experienced traumatic loss. I pray it brings you solace. K.
