Ruth Arnold lives in a suburb of Chicago with her teen son and older son (when he’s not away to college). Ruth lost her husband 12 years ago to an unforeseen sudden death. She suffered from complicated grief for many years due to many unresolved issues with her husband, but recovered in time with grief counseling. Ruth is living with metaststic breast cancer and serves as an ambassador for a primary medication she takes. Ruth hopes her writings about grief and living with cancer can benefit others.
