The sadness of the loss of a loved one can be overwhelming. Some people choose to withdraw, try to ignore the pain and attempt to deny grief. Yet researches have proven that this approach only makes the situation worse and often leads to depression.

The loss is painful, yet you will find comfort deep within your soul as you recall special memories of your time together. Tears will flow, grieving will begin, and a lifetime of memories will be cherished. Tears are your body’s way of shedding toxins and not crying can do long term damage to your brain. At times like this…it’s natural to cry.
