Hospice Care in Westchester & Putnam Offers Holiday Coping Workshops
People often feel overwhelmed with grief following the loss of a loved one, and with the holiday season fast approaching, many people will reflect on good times they have spent with family and friends during past holidays and look forward to reunions. Others may be thinking of deceased loved ones with which they cannot share the holidays. Grief can cause feelings of shock, numbness, anger, guilt, sadness and confusion. When you are grieving, the holidays can be bittersweet because they are filled with memories and expectations.
