He Took a Piece of Me with Him: Echoes of What Once Was By: Suzanne Sigmund With bits of humor and a lot of heart, He Took a Piece of Me with Him: Echoes of What Once Was is the true story of Suzanne Sigmund’s life with her husband up to the time of his death, and the recovery that followed the loss of her best friend. Journey through grief and discover what she had to do to begin the healing process and find a new happiness in her existence, including the things she did to help pull herself out of the fog.

In the end, there is no right or wrong way to deal with grief; only trial and error, and learning what works best for you.

Book Description
A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.
