Join the Blog Tour for What Do I Do?

What Do I Do? A Step by Step Guide for Friends and Family to Support Anyone Who Has Lost a Child by Kimberly Calabrese will be released by Kat Biggie Press on August 6, 2019. The book is available for pre-order on Amazon.

??…this book is an excellent starting point for anyone who wants to support and love someone through their darkest hours.?? – Jessica Steinman Sternin, Filmmaker

This book is full of ideas, checklists, resources, and stories to help and guide the family and friends (not the grieving parents) when they ask themselves – How can I help? What Can I do? after a friend or family member has a baby or child die. It’s the book many grieving parents wish they’d been able to point people to after their child died.

Kimberly Calabrese decided to write this book to help others get through the devastating loss of a child and talks about the critical need of helping family and friends.? She has since dedicated herself to healing others who have suffered their own tragic loss.

As Kimberly says, ?You never get over the loss of a child, you evolve.?

In her book, ?What Do I Do??, her mission is to reach as many people as she can with the intent of aiding the healing process for those who have lost a loved one.

Kat Biggie Press is currently organizing the blog and review tour for What Do I Do?

We are looking for influencers – bloggers, community builders, Instagrammers, people with large Facebook followings, authors, and other grieving parents who really would have loved to have had this book to direct people to every time they got the question – How can I Help? to join us in sharing the news about this book.

If you join us, we’ll provide you with plenty of resources to help you share about the book – links, copy, suggested posts, images, and so forth. If you’d like to run a giveaway, we’ll be happy to send a print copy to the winner you choose. This is an important book, and we’ll do whatever we can to make this easy for you to share.

If you’d like to participate, just fill out the form at the bottom of this page.

About The Book

Our DutyOur Duty follows the shenanigans of Polly and Aggie, student nurses when World War II began. Eager to be a part of the action, Aggie joins the Army Air Corps upon graduating nursing school, and qualifies as flight nurse. She is shipped off to the Pacific, while Polly stays home. Aggie soon faces many difficulties common to this under-recognized group of brave women, including their initial lack of respect by the military brass. Aggie finally earned the respect of all around her when she kept 30 wounded men safe when their plane went down in the Pacific. Her letters home detail the challenges for nurses and the accounts of the personal lives of the airmen she came to know who faced unimaginable dangers in the skies over Europe, many ending in death. While Polly stayed behind to help on the home front, she does her part to keep Aggie entertained. Her letters boost the morale of any who are privy to them, describing romantic adventures and changes in life in the States.
