Discover a sanctuary of perspectives, tools, and shared experiences written for people living with grief.

The healing process….it is up and down all the time…..it makes us cry and it makes us laugh…depending on what we are thinking of about our loved one no longer with us.  In losing my mom, my dad, and my brother all at different times in my life..…I think of them, a situation, something clear out of the blue and it brings back a memory….sometimes it makes me smile or laugh and sometimes it makes me sad and cry.  The other night I thought of what my dad use to say to me at nighttime….”don’t let the bed bugs bite”…brought a smile to my face…..I slept good that night…….do you have any words or sayings that someone you lost use to say to you to make you laugh or smile?  Please share if you would like…
