Publisher's summary

“It’s just grief,” they’ll tell you. “It will pass. We all lose someone at some point in our lives.”

But the death of a partner is so much more than “just grief.” It’s a different kind of grief—the kind that permanently shifts our perspective on life.

It’s stressing over what to do with their belongings and feeling anxious when you hear the doorbell ring. It’s tossing and turning to the memory of their last breath and pondering the many decisions you could have made to prevent their death.

As someone who’s been through it, Jessica Ayers understands how crushing partner loss is. In a matter of seconds, she went from nursing her three-day-old son to feeling for her dead husband's pulse.

In Your Partner Is Dead, Now What? Jessica explores the darkest corners of grief that emerge after the loss of a partner. She writes with extreme vulnerability about the unforeseen moments of trauma, grief, and anger we encounter and offers firsthand advice on how to adequately face them.

With expert contributions from two grief therapists, Your Partner Is Dead, Now What? examines life after loss and offers a realistic approach to finding a new normal after enduring the most unimaginable pain.

Your Partner Is Dead, Now What? is for anyone who’s lost a romantic partner to death and those who support them. With this book’s insight, you can learn to stop fighting grief as something to move on from and start embracing it as something we must live with forever.

Such helpful words, thank you!

My mother is a Widow and not only did I get a glimpse into her struggles but I also gained understanding into my own loss. Each chapter helped me reflect on my own life and gave me a sense of hope and guidance. Thank you for your resilience and for using your life story to help others.
