Time heals all wounds, they say. But when your husband dies suddenly, on a glorious sunny day when all he did was go to work, sometimes it takes a little more than patience to get you through. Sometimes, it takes the love and support of women who are exactly where you are—and when you’re lucky enough to find them, you cling to each other until you’re strong enough to stand on your own. The truths you discover in the process are universal, compelling, and altogether inspiring.
That was the lesson learned by Pattie Carrington, Julia Collins, Claudia Gerbasi, and Ann Haynes, four thirty-something women whose husbands worked at the World Trade Center. Before September 11, 2001, they didn’t know each other, but in the months following that horrible day they came together, drawn as much by their similar backgrounds as their shared tragedy. At their very first meeting, the foursome realized their bond was too special to ignore. In no time their Widows’ Club had cemented into a source of hope and, soon, love that saw them through their darkest hours, and on to new lives. A celebration of friendship, optimism, and empathy, Love You, Mean It is a shared memoir of rebuilt lives. This amazing story of friendship and hope will exhilarate readers from coast to coast.
