If used the ideal way, the reader goes through 1 page a day for 100 days. I think think there's value in that, especially for folks that want to make progress in a book but whose illness might make that challenging.

I none the less found that many of the ideas revolved around the idea of "seek comfort and get help from others" just re-packaged in different forms. Not a bad thing per se, an important message, but I was anticipating more of an involvement of grief work than a reminder I can ask someone for rides to a doctor's office.
