Good Grief

Violet smiled the other day and I saw my brother, Andrew, in her smile. Also, like him, she has a wicked sense of humor. Georgia has a love for science and does this silly little dance. Andrew used to have a silly little dance (I can still do it). …

Holiday Journal Prompts for Grief and Loss Support

Right after my brother passed away, a very wise person took me to buy a diary (I was 12, you have diaries at 12.) She literally pulled me from the awkward funeral home viewing and walked me right into Hallmark. I still have that journal and opened it up when…

The Important Dates

(Other than that date.) A few months after Andrew passed away, his eighth birthday rolled around. As a family, we weren’t sure what to do. Do we celebrate? Bury ourselves in our beds? Ignore it? Ignoring it didn’t feel right but celebrating didn’t either. As a 13-year old, I decided we would have a…

The Mess of Grief

Look at the picture above. What do you see? Do you see a mess? A work of art? Or a tool used to create? I was on a Zoom call and we were talking about life and how complicated it can be (yes, this was a business meeting, not a…

The Andrew Project

Around the anniversary of my brother's death, I tend to think about other people in my situation. How did they feel? What did they experience? How are they now? Finally, I decided to do something about it. I’m gathering information to see how I can help other’s who have lost a sibling (or other losses). Please help me out so we can all help each other. Understanding Your Grief Experience At the age of 12, my only sibling passed away. As my parents dealt with significant loss and overwhelming support, I…www.surveymonkey.com

High Need for Closure

I like closure and these last 24-months refuse to go away. I don’t like things being drawn out, I need them buttoned up and dealt with so I can move on. I attribute that to the loss of my brother, and what my parents describe as, my “high need for closure.” Right now, my husband is at work and I’m at…

Dear Papa Bear

A letter to my Grandpa who passed away Dear Papa Bear, I don’t know what my first memory of you is. You’ve just always been. I remember staying the night at your house when I was a kid–so many sleepovers. I would wake up for two reasons: you were snoring or you were leaving for work at Dow…
