Riding the Waves: A Memoir of Love, Loss, & Grief
After returning from a 10-month trip through Africa, I was keen to keep travelling. The world awaited and teaching English overseas seemed the perfect way to do so. That is until I met Brad, and everything changed. Girl meets boy, falls in love, and happily ever after looms on the horizon. Until a fateful phone call changes the journey all over again. This is a trip that no one wants to take, but far too many people do. I went from a newlywed with a baby in tow to the overwhelming world of the local cancer clinic, intensive treatments, and a spiralling of life as I knew it. While hope never waned, loss was on the horizon. This is a heartbreaking and intensely personal grief memoir exploring love and loss but, more importantly, the path to healing. I ask you to walk with me as I try to make sense of it all, with the hope of discovering a new road. Why? Because you are never alone. A journey shared, no matter the struggle, is a voyage from which you can survive, learn, and grow. If you have ever questioned or doubted your path, take my hand and walk with me as we “Ride the Waves” together.

Daniel Lockwood

"Riding the Waves, A memoir of Love, Loss & Grief" beautifully captures the experiences of emotional rawness that loss and grief often portray in life, especially from a young age.  Through the author’s challenges and perseverance, the reader is provided with a personal connection to the story that interweaves accurate and helpful ways to support ourselves and others along the grief continuum. Riding the Waves is an excellent resource for anyone who is looking to educate themselves on ways to help, as well as ways to support loved ones with young children. Encounters of love, loss and grief in life are not meant to be experienced alone.  Riding the Waves is a wonderful companion for any part of that journey."

"In this poignant tale of resilience, Katherine navigates the heart-wrenching journey of losing her husband to cancer, their story of growing old together ending prematurely. The narrative beautifully explores love, loss, and the strength found in unexpected places. Katherine weaves an emotional tapestry, capturing the essence of human connection and the impact of farewell.

Riding the Waves will hopefully help others navigate the dark waters of grief--and know they're not alone.

It is an emotional read, and at times not an easy one, as the feelings she explores are vivid and raw.

Highly recommended."
