A. There is no limit...you will grieve as long and as hard as your emotions make you. I still grieve for my Father and my Sister. I always will, it is just less often that my eyes suddenly fill with tears when I realise just how much I miss them. I do not regret this though...it is one of the most human things we can ever do.

How do you get rid of grief, sorrow and depression?
Q. My beloved dog, Blondie died 2 weeks ago, and the grief is unbearable. How is the best way to deal with grief? She died a horrible death.
Asked by Ronald S - Thu May 11 06:44:19 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Seek out other pet owners who will understand your loss and minimize contact with those who do not. It just takes time...remember the good times as Blondie wouldn't like it if you are sad over her. it'll take time and you will look back upon her memory and smile. It is still very soon and the pain is still to raw for a new pet. I wouldn't rush out and get a new pet yet. You will know when it is time for a new little friend.

A. Some funeral homes / mortuaries provide to the family the possibility of seeing a grief counselor as a part of their services. Christian ministers are also willing to speak with you about your grief and the types of questions you ask. I agree, the pain can be intense. Sometimes in our effort to not feel the pain we push away the very people and moments that others come to offer support or prayers. As hard as it seems at the moment, when you will allow even one or two people into your trust to simply sit nearby, it can take the edge off the loneliness of being alone in the house.

Q.

A. When I was in high school, we lost a few students, too. 3 guys died in a car accident on the way home from school. One guy died of leukemia. Another had an undiagnosed heart condition and collapsed during gym class, his parents ended life support the next day. With each of these deaths, the school held prayer meetings in the court yard, and had open invitations to the counselor's offices to anyone that needed to talk to someone. I didn't know any of the people that died, so while I sympathized with the families, I didn't grieve. But, I heard that the prayer meetings and talking to the counselors really helped those that did know the students.

How does a person die from grief?
Q. I was just curious as to how someone would die from grief. Does a certain part of the body or mind stop working? Do blood vessels burst? It's a strange concept to me. Does anyone know?
Asked by Dee - Sun Mar 4 05:46:26 2007 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Grief can create stress severe enough to provoke any of the stress-related illnesses. Severe grief can even produce a physical condition like the shock from physical trauma. Also, the immune system is closely related to our emotional state and can make a person extremely vulnerable to potentially fatal infections, and depression from grief can also be a terribly dangerous problem. In shock, organ systems can shut down as you mentioned, and stress could cause an elevated blood pressure and that could cause stroke or heart attack. You really don't die from grief, but from the fallout it causes in the body.

Are the 7 stages of grief different for someone who is close to somebody who is fighting late stage cancer?
Q. For instance, do the stages of grief start at an earlier time period as you watch the person fight. Are the stages of grief differrent, stronger, or not as strong after the fight is over?
Asked by atl_ace1 - Mon May 11 12:08:28 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross writes about grief stages that happen as you are anticipating a death, while some other grief stage time-lines are written once you have lost a person to death. In reality they are much the same. I lost my father to Alzheimer's in Jan., but I had been losing him to the disease for years. So the time-line you experience can differ, I suppose, depending on how you lose them. I would say that sometimes the stages don't come in the order that you would expect, since you have been going through the trial for some time. I have started a website on grief, I first lost my husband and now my dad. Maybe you would find some of it helpful. May God be with you as you go through this difficult time!

I also try to think about the good memories I had with that person and the good times we spent together. We cannot bring our loved ones back (and I would love to do so) but we can look at their life and what they accomplished and what we did with them. God bless you and time will help you with your grief. You will not forget but you will feel more at peace with yourself. My thoughts are with you.

A. Losing a child is the hardest thing to bear, IMO. I am so sorry for your loss. Your wife needs medical help as she is beyond depressed. A grief support group for parents who have lost a child, will also help. Call her doctor, make an appoointment, go with her. Get the name of a counselor, and go with her to sessions, even if you just wait in the waiting room. You might need a few sessions yourself. Best wishes for a hopeful future.

You have done the right thing by seeking therapy. It isn't uncommon to wonder how different your life might have been if he had lived, but not to the point that you could ruin your marriage.

A. First of all you need to realize that his death wasn't your fault. Also that you had to go on with your life! You have a fantastic husband and children who need you. You have done the right thing by seeking therapy. It isn't uncommon to wonder how different your life might have been if he had lived, but not to the point that you could ruin your marriage. You need to increase your faith in God and that you will some day see your ex again! God does work miracles in very strange ways! Join a support group in your area for grief counseling and to share your feelings with others who also grieve.

What are a few things that might grief the Holy Spirit?
Q. I hear about how important it is not to "grief" the Holy Spirit. What could be some things we might be doing frequently and that we do not realize we are grieving Him?

A. I think its just a melodramatic myth But swans form monogamous pair bonds that last for many years, and in some cases these can last for life and the chances of it losing its mate, was quite high as in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the Trumpeter Swan was hunted heavily, both as game and a source of feathers. This species is also unusually sensitive to lead poisoning while young. These birds once bred in North America from northwestern Indiana west to Oregon in the U.S., and in Canada from James Bay to the Yukon, but their comparatively small numbers in the southern part of their range were reduced to near zero by the mid-twentieth century.
