Heartbreak: A Personal and Scientific Journey | 
pickAn interesting read about how our bodies respond to our grief. It turns out, we really do have ‘heart strings‘…and we can die from a broken heart. I remember when one of our dogs died a few years back, how I cried the next day. I cried so hard I couldn‘t breathe, so hard my chest was starting to hurt, my heart began to palpitate (dangerous, because I have Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome). My heart was broken because I‘d lost my little boy. ⬇️
JenniferEgnor In this book, the author shares her journey of grief after a marriage of 30 years suddenly ended. It was a wild ride and she learned the deep connections we have between body and mind—how sick she really was. She ultimately had to make choices that if not addressed could have taken her down a much harder road, one where she would have been sick with more than just grief. 7mo
