You will probably feel a variety of emotions when you lose someone
you love. The ability to make it through the death of a loved
one can be challenging. You may have feelings of shock and disbelief,
anger, guilt and depression.
Caring for yourself is not selfish. The period of recovery
is different for every person. There is no timetable for grief,
so don't compare yourself with others who have lost loved
ones. Your life has changed and healing in your own way is
important for the health of your mind, body and spirit. It's
normal for some days to be better than others.
The following sources will provide you with sound information
to help you manage your feelings and emotions at this most
difficult time.

"Though grief is a natural and necessary
process, it's also an extraordinarily difficult one. We're
here to help mourners and those who care for them."
