Now Reading - A Grief Observed


Currently I’m reading A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis. I lost my very close friend Nancy Weichmann this past September. She died of cancer at the age of 48. Nancy was the closest thing I had to a sister.

C.S. Lewis wrote A Grief Observed after he lost his wife Joy to cancer. (Their story is told in the film Shadowlands.

I realized my grief over the loss of my friend does not compare to the grief of C.S. Lewis felt. But reading Lewis’ reflections helps me connect with my own loss.
