that maybe you look through some listings on amazon for books about grief.

i don't remember if you mentioned that you had looked for books or not. but i just typed in a search on amazon for grief books and there are plenty. if you find some that look good and may be helpful, you could probably order them from your library since most libraries have a borrowing system and can even request book loans from out of state. that way you don't have to be buying a ton of books if you don't want to.

also, if you do find some good ones please feel free to recommend them in this group.

i just googled a list of books on grief and found a few things you might have a look at:
