Question from Kara
Last fall I lost my mother after she suffered a heart attack while on vacation. The suddenness of her death was overwhelming in scope and it has only been in the last couple of months that I feel myself coming back to some semblance of normalcy and learning to cope with life without he... More
Question from Carter
I’m 31 years old and recently lost my fiancée to cancer 7 months ago. I am coping as best I can and try to focus on all the joyful memories and experiences we had together. My problem is that I’m struggling with a lot of the comments and expressions of sympathy that I have received f... More
Question from Camilla
My best friend lost her son over a year ago from an undiagnosed heart defect. Understandably, the loss devastated her family but a year later, she is still deeply depressed and cannot seem to get past his death. I know that there is no way to ever completely recover from such a profoun... More

God bless.

Question from Theresa
I have seen the death of loved ones many times in my life but the death of my beloved aunt was an exception. She died of lung cancer in my arms. When I left the hospital, I drove immediately to be with my uncle thinking he would need someone to be with him through this time. I don't k... More
