“I want to share my own experiences of loss and how I learned to continue to live past this tragedy,” said Durante,” in hope that I can help someone struggling with their own grief. I also felt that it was my obligation to continue the work that Liz has started.”

“The Mourning After” also details Durante’s trips to Uganda, performing surgical procedures in remote areas and his visits into the impenetrable forest trekking the endangered silverback gorillas that captivated him as a young man. He also established the Elizabeth Durante Medical Clinic in Kabermaido, Uganda.

“I always knew I’d write a book, but I never imagined it would be about this,” said Durante. “I had lost my way, and losing Elizabeth led me to reinvent myself and focus on what really matters.”
