Coping With Loss
In times of grief our emotions take over. Be kind to yourself and never feel that you are alone. Talk to friends and family and don’t be afraid to ask for help. Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult challenges we experience in our lives, and most of us need support during the grieving process.
