Healing from Loss and Grief
When someone dies, feelings of loss and grief can consume life. Our Bereavement Programs offer compassion and guidance needed for healing.
You are not alone in this process and we can connect you with professionals who understand. Our Hospice Chaplain helps families find peace when facing death. The following programs are offered without charge to all community members, whether or not your loved one was served by Talbot Hospice. Visit the Caregiver and Family Support page for more detailed information. Please check our Calendar for current meeting dates.
Please Remember…
You have a right to grieve. No one can tell you what is right or wrong. Each person grieves in their own way and in their own time because we are each unique, and because no one else has had the same relationship with the person who has died. Tears, anger, sadness, fear and guilt are all normal expressions of the grief process. Acknowledge and share them with someone you trust. When people ask, “How Can I Help?” let them know what you need. Be honest with yourself.
Reaching out to others and accepting their support may be very difficult, especially in a vulnerable state, but there is no substitute for the support of others. Support groups are especially helpful because you can “tell your story” to other women and men who may share a similar experience.
