“Let me know if I can help”
That phrase, though it means well, can make a grieving person feel like it’s their responsibility now to think of a way they need help, then to reach back out to ask for the help - and in the end, they rarely do. Next time, when offering support to a grieving friend, be specific. Cook and deliver a home cooked meal, come over and clean their house, or purchase a meaningful memorial gift in memory of their loved one.

There are many different types of grief. There is the grief of a losing a loved one. There is anticipatory grief, the grief felt before the loss someone held dear. There is even grief that is born. Perhaps a person grieves for a sibling or parent that they never met yet is still a large part of their life. Some experience delayed grief, postponed by a major life event or change, while others experience cumulative grief, where it isn't possible to take the necessary time to grieve one loss before the next.
For those who are experiencing any type of grief, we are here for support. Take some time today for self-care. Self-care is too underrated. It's impossible to drink from an empty cup. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us for resources on grief.

"It has been said, 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone."

There are 3 types of tears:
1. Continuous tears help protect against infections.
2. Reflex tears run when the eye is irritated.
3. Emotional tears are a natural reaction and can be a painkiller.
