Grief advice for the Holidays

NHPCO has put up this page of advice about grieving during the holidays. The advice is good and needed.

As a person who has read all the books, I know the holidays are a time when grief is strongest. As one who has lost someone very near and dear in the past couple of years, I can tell you that there are times when the holidays flat out suck. If you have not been through it, then take my word for it and pass this info out to everyone you know that has lost a loved one this year.

One of Jimmy Buffett's songs says:
I have good days, and bad days, and going half mad days.
That's a good summary of what the holidays are like for those who are dealing with the loss of a loved one.

What a great link and a nice reminder about the holiday blues. I will use those tips for myself and may post that link on my blog as well, if you don't mind. :-)

true, but the flowers add an extra dimension that cannot be created
with soft furnishings and accessories – they bring with them a sense
of life and growth, making a room come alive. So read about a 2005 holidays

Hey everyone! Cool site! The customer support seems good and the technology jobs are endless. Maybe I will have a better directmatch searching for human resources
since my keyword "customer care jobs" did not fit as intended.
Glad I found you! Keep on keepin on!
