Grief Support
Interesting article on grief and counselling on the BBC site today:
BBC NEWS Health 'I've got so much anger'
I can relate to many of the girls thoughts and comments from my experiences. But I was more worried about things after Jules died, and less angry. Guilty that I could have done more. I suppose the inevitable outcome mean't the anger and frustration was gone by then, having had time for it to sink in. Although I now know what little I was listening to, or understanding. Just looking at the photographs and video from last year, I'm amazed at how quickly Jules had deterioated, and I never noticed.
As for the girls views on counselling and support, I do agree. I feel so fortunate that the Hospice was able to offer support during the whole period. Something I know is not as obvious for others. Being able to talk things through with someone helps so much in coming to terms with everything that's happening. And support in what needs doing, and when.
