It's not easy being a survivor. Sometimes, what is needed is checklist that gets you through the first week or so after the passing of your loved one.

This checklist was developed by a military spouse, who went through the process of "reinventing the wheel". Had she had what she is now sharing with us all, her life, the lives of her children, and the lives of her close friends would not have had the pressure of "uncertainty" added to their grief.
