After a false start two weeks previously, I started the DVD Grief Matters -Learning to cope with Loss course on Monday evening with six attending the first session, some with a continuingly raw sense of loss, others with no experience of significant loss in their lifetime. Three others have since said that they want to come and I think it will be very valuable: the teaching is clear, it is rooted in the experience of individuals, who have had varied experiences of bereavement, and there are professionals, closely involved with the dying and death drawn into the discussion. |
