"Over a number of years,I have experienced personal losses of a 21 year old daughter and both parents. After reading the book "Get Over It" and reflecting back, I now understand that many of my feelings were not unique to me; but were part of the normal grieving process.

Audrey, by opening up your heart and sharing your feelings, you are helping others cope as they struggle through the journey of grieving. Profound inspirational messages!"

"Dealing with death is not easy. It doesn't matter what a person's background
and experience is; the death of a loved one is a major challenge to a person's equilibrium. It's not easy learning how to cope with the grieving, how to live on when a spouse, parent or child dies, and how to deal with the trauma, guilt and pain that's involved. Since death is a part of life, everyone eventually has to come to terms with the realities of someone they love dying. Audrey Stringer has been there and her simple and easy-to-read, self-help book has professional advice and strategies that can help anyone move on and live and still enjoy life without a loved one. Her book can help people dump the guilt and find a new balance in their life after the loss of a loved one."

"Get Over It! is a wonderful book-it is easy to read. I got it last week and even though I went through grieving periods a few years ago for various reasons, it still makes you realize that you will be okay and can move on and that your reactions are normal. I hope she sells a million copies, a very beautiful person."

"I am currently reading your book….to the section building memories, a wonderful tool and a great job. I’m proud of you. I wish I could have had it 10 years ago when I lost my spouse. It’s hard to realize the feelings that we have are real and normal. Being the private person that I am I kept my emotions all locked up inside of me afraid to tell anyone for fear that they would think I was crazy."
