Book Description

On January 25, 2016 I unexpectedly lost my husband to a heart attack. We were married 35 years, 6 months and 18 days. I married him when I was 19 years old. He was my best friend. We worked together in his small private Optometry practice for the past 10 years. We have a 32 year old son. We have 1 biological grandson (2.5 years old) and 4 step-grandchildren (5, 7, 8 & 12) that are more in the non-step-grandchildren category. He and the biological grandson were best friends. My world is upside down from losing him AND I am in the process of closing his 37.5 year old practice. My heart is broken. I don’t want my new normal. I just want it to be January 24th again.
