"Using her extensive experience as a Cruse counsellor, Susan Wallbank breaks the conspiracy of silence, and addresses with sensitivity the vast repercussions of losing a sexual partner. 'Sexuality', she believes, 'is not just about making love. It is about how we see ourselves as a man or a woman. It is about how we relate to other men and women around us.'" "The Empty Bed is not only about coping in the short term - it deals also with the problems of finding a new sense of identity, forming new, intimate relationships and dealing with our family's and friends' reactions as we make a new life for ourselves. It is a hopeful, encouraging book which will help everyone who has lost a partner to gain the necessary knowledge and skills to survive and face the future."--BOOK JACKET.
