Dealing With Grief

Grief is a universal emotion. From the first 'cavemen' who lost a friend to someone who left us this morning, grief will be a part of our lives at some point. Everyone handles this powerful emotion differently. Some will grieve for a few weeks and then settle in and remember sweet memories, and some will grieve for years. There is no set method of grieving correctly.As a medic and then an ER nurse, I saw many people grieving. No one lives forever, but I learned to keep my words simple as I helped the families deal with their loss. In these chapters, I hope you might find some comfort.
