Graceful Goodbyes is finally active and with sheer gratitude the 'congrat' emails are coming in. I am overwhelmed at the courtesy, the love, and the wonderful words from folks wishing us well! We can help many people through some rough times by just listening to their expressions and questions of what to do next when you lose a loved one or have someone in your family or your life dealing with a terminal illness. Pretty rough stuff with no real good answer except to listen, really listen. Losing someone to death or in the process of dying does NOT make it any easier to handle; try to understand the person trying to live with a terminal illness...who do they really talk to? Not too many people to share your fears of dying with or how about those left behind...who do they share their pain of losing someone they dearly loved with? I am discovering the clergy are indeed privy to the other side of death and dying and it takes a mighty strong person to handle that realm. Sharing grief, loss, unexpected loss, upcoming loss, the pain of grief can be fierce and without mercy sometimes. Thank goodness the gift of words and listening have no boundaries.
