Each week we feature a book written by a member of the Incubator.

This week:
Mom Minus Dad 

Who: Jamieson Haverkampf
Incubator City: Atlanta
What: How to stay strong after losing a parent
Why: Your family is worth it

A widowed person’s emotional and physical health, as well as that of his or her adult children, is often overlooked. Paperwork, legal confusion, and stressful family dynamics delay the grieving process, leaving everyone exhausted and struggling to cope. 
Mom Minus Dad hopes to keep this from happening.

This book contains the levelheaded advice and essential resources adults need to navigate such a difficult time. Jamieson, whose own mother was widowed at 56, helps family members adjust to a new lifestyle and plan everything from finances to vacations to retirement. Clear, organized sections are packed with facts, Web sites, and first-hand knowledge, not only making day-to-day decisions more manageable, but helping you to find time for fun and pleasure again.
