GRIEVING THE SUDDEN DEATH OF A LOVED ONE: Guidance for When the Unthinkable Occurs

There is no adequate preparation for dealing with the sudden death of a loved one. This video will take you through seventeen segments from "The impact of a sudden death" to "The pain of reality" to "Yielding to the season of grief". You will hear expert advice about how everyone grieves in their own way, how children grieve, our environment influences how we grieve, and the ways that circumstances can affect grief. You will learn to work through grief, how grief can affect us physically, how to take care of yourself, and the dangers of avoiding grief. There are what experts call grief bursts and holidays and special days when the feelings will be most intense.
Above all, remember that grief has no timeframe, and can last a lifetime. It is okay - in fact, it is healthy, to ask serious questions such as, Where is God? And, if you are attempting to care for someone else who is grieving, you need to understand how to be with someone who is grieving. Healing will come. Give it time. With this new resource you will discover how to slowly move toward acceptance.
