Coping with pet loss grief
The death of a beloved animal companion does not end our relationship with them.
All the love that we felt for them and all the love that we received back from them has to go somewhere.
And that’s why learning to live with our grief is the toughest balancing act there is; that of both letting go and holding on. There is no right or wrong way to do this, but some ways are healthier than others.
This Is YOUR Place to Find the Pet Loss Grief Support and Resources You’ve Been Looking for…
“What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, For all that we love deeply becomes a part of us.”
Helen Keller
Today. Tomorrow. Ever.
Grief takes on many
forms
Grief is the natural response to loss. It’s the physical and emotional suffering you feel when someone you love is taken away from you. The pain of loss can be overwhelming. There are all kinds of difficult and unexpected emotions like shock and disbelief, anger, guilt, and profound sadness. Grief can also disrupt your physical health, making it difficult to sleep, eat, or to even think straight. These, and many more, are all normal reactions to loss—and the more significant the loss, the more intense your grief will be.
“Look closely and you will see
Almost everyone carrying bags
Of cement on their shoulders.
That’s why it takes courage
To get out of bed in the morning
And climb into the day.”
~ Edward Hirsch
