Grief and Loss
"In our hearts, we all know that death is a part of life. In fact, death gives meaning to our existence because it reminds all of us that life is precious."
The loss of a life is life’s most stressful event and can cause a major emotional crisis. After the death of someone you love, you experience bereavement, which literally means "to be deprived by death."
When a death takes place, you may experience a wide range of emotions, even when the death is expected. Many people report feeling an initial stage of numbness after first learning of a death, but there is no real order to the grieving process.
