## Resource

Karen LaVerdiere returns to Mystic Radio to share the practical realities she has faced since her husband Bobby's death in April —including navigating Social Security, veterans’ benefits, selling their home, and preparing for a new life in Arizona. Her story reveals how quickly a grieving spouse can be asked to manage complicated financial systems while still processing profound loss. Robin Alexis and Mary Stephenson guide Karen through a grounding and healing experience, helping her move from fear and uncertainty toward greater relief, trust, and openness to what comes next. Together, they explore how grief lives in the body, how love continues beyond physical death, and how a widow can begin receiving support while reclaiming her own path, strength, and future.
