When You are Grieving

Grief is the natural response to profound loss and is the expression of the strong bond you had with the person who died. No two people grieve in exactly the same way, and how we express our grief is influenced by many things, such as our religious and personal beliefs, the circumstances of the death, and how we have dealt with previous losses.
