If you need help, coping with loss at Christmas, we think you might like a look at tips from The Compassionate Friends. This group has come together through common experience – the loss of a son or daughter. The tips, we think, will be of general help to anyone dealing with loss.
We lost a friend suddenly. A friend of a crowd of us. None of us really knew her family – as often happens.
A year on from her funeral, I wanted to post a wee tribute on Final Fling.
Why? I wondered.
I think it’s like the importance of the ‘say their names’ campaign run by The Compassionate Friends who encourage families who have lost a son or daughter to say the names and tell the stories of our loved and lost.
