In the wake of loss, what does reality look and feel like? When grief is overwhelming and who you love has passed, is there a way to live in the present with a grateful heart?
When Stevie Dahms lost her husband Paul to Stage 4 Metastatic RCC, the world shifted in the worst way. Suddenly, the decades of love and friendship they spent together had come to a close - her soulmate was gone. In that empty hole, sanity and insanity began to mix and Stevie had to fight to decipher between reality and Pretend Land. Now, she's here to help other widows weather the same storms she endured.
In Pretend Land, a book based on the author's poem of the same name, Stevie Dahms creates a space for widowers to grieve and recover within their own minds. She offers her hand as a guide and shoulder to cry on as she deftly leads others through the journey of healing after unimaginable loss.
Shedding the burdens of guilt, depression, and loneliness is hard to do - and a job that takes consistent effort. In her book, Stevie provides reliable help in illuminating the next right step in the grieving process, encouraging readers to transform their loneliness and sadness into revitalized hopes and dreams in an emptier but new and exciting world.
If you or someone you know has lost a loved one, Pretend Land can help process emotions and understand the recovery journey after significant loss. Readers will adventure through many emotions and reclaim their inner strength to find peace and happiness after tragedy.
