Who hasn’t wished they could contact a loved one on the other side? To see how they’re doing…to say something you wish you’d told them before it was too late…to get closure. There could be any number of reasons. Today, Luisa Cloutier shares her tragic loss and subsequent journey to find peace and healing. Welcome, Luisa!
I have read Love Never Dies by Dr. Jamie Turndorf,
I chose this book because I needed to know how to connect with my husband on the other side. Brandon had had a heart attack, he was a healthy and handsome man. I needed to reassure myself that he was with me, in another dimension, and that love never dies. I needed his spiritual guidance to make the right decisions for our business. I confirm that I had had signs that Brandon’s spirit was with me and that we were inseparable forever.
Dr. Jamie Turndorf’s book is therapeutic and gave me peace. I highly recommend reading this book to people who have lost their loved ones.
My memoir UNTIL FOREVER will be released on May 24, 2018.
When Luisa’s mother died, Luisa was left to take care of her family. Her dream of leaving Naples for a better life died too. Her life became hard work and sacrifice, leaving no time for dreaming or romance. Then one day she met a U.S Marine stationed in Italy. Though Brandon didn’t speak Italian, he understood what Luisa needed and made her feel like a princess. They fell in love, married and began to build a life together in the United States. For many years they struggled. Because of Brandon’s military service, Luisa spent long periods apart from him. Under the stress, their marriage slowly began to fracture, leading to infidelity and separation. During that time apart, both Luisa and Brandon learned what it took to make a marriage work and came to realize how much they truly meant to each other. When they reconciled, their love grew even stronger. Until one day when everything changed and Luisa faced something she didn’t think she would ever recover from. Until Forever is the inspiring story of the power of love and the strength that lies within us when we think we have nothing left.

I’d think so too, Jacquie – but that’s from our writers’ perspective, I guess. Feels better to let it flow on the pages.

It’s been so comforting for me to write through my feelings of grief since the funeral as well, and I think writing books like this help connect to and comfort others in the same head space. Thank you for your review and sharing your own book of your experience!

Looks like you’re of the same mind as Jacquie and me, Kay. Writing it down helps sort it out and, as Jacquie said, can be cathartic.
