In Good Health - April 2001

In Good Health writer featured in anthology


  Four pieces written by Adele DelSavio, a contributing writer to In Good Health, have been featured in a new book, From Eulogy To Joy.
  From Eulogy To Joy is an anthology of personal accounts of the grieving process. Its authors are people who have experienced grief firsthand in a variety of situations: loss of parents, mates, children, siblings, relatives and friends through accidents, illness, suicide, murder and natural death.
  The book was written to provide comfort and reassurance that grief is intensely individual and, because of this, most responses to it are appropriate. It addresses loss not so much as something to get over but as something to grow through.
  DelSavio's contributions to From Eulogy To Joy deal with the loss of her 17-year-old son, Michael, who died in an accident in 1994. They originally appeared in the Oswego Palladium-Times.
  Other contributors to the book include Judy Belushi, widow of comedian John Belushi; Rabbi Earl Grollman, author of Living When A Loved One Has Died; and Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations With God, Books I, II and III.
  From Eulogy To Joy (ISBN: 0-7388-3799-7 for softcover; 0-7388-3798-9 for hardcover) is available locally from the river's end bookstore, 19 W. Bridge St., Oswego, 315-342-0077, reillybook@aol.com.
  It can be ordered on the web at Xlibris.com; Borders.com.
