35. Widowed Not Alone Bereavement Groups - How Kathryn Monaco-Douglas Has Dedicated Her Life To Helping Other Widows

One evening, Kathryn's husband Larry pulled her aside, sat her down, and very seriously explained to her that he felt like he didn't have any more goals in life. He had nothing more to live for. He didn't know why, but he felt he needed to tell her that. 2 weeks later Larry passed away suddenly from a blood clot.    Kathryn became a widow at 42 years old.   She had a disappointing experience with traditional therapy and then with a local bereavement group, so she decided to start her own group. She called it Widowed Not Alone. She has spent the last 15 years growing her support groups, adding new fundraisers, and training dozens of new grief facilitators. Her support groups are totally free to the public. Kathryn is now writing a book about how to facilitate bereavement groups. Her book is called "The Bereavement Guide Book" and will be released soon! She is dedicated to helping other widows and those who are grieving loss.   You can find her at www.widowednotalone.com IG: @widowednotalone FB: Long Island Young Widows and Widowers Group For more info, resources, and blog posts go to: www.widow180.com Sign up to be on our email list!
