While many of us are planning for family get togethers during the Christmas holidays 

there are also many families who are grieving and feel totally lost as they mourn over their loved ones.

Ive heard several times from parents who have lost a child or spouse that they aren’t putting 

up a Christmas Tree...   “ I just can’t handle it “.   “ Not this year “    “ Its too hard “

Unfortunately I don’t think there are any of us who doesn’t know of 

someone who either died from cancer or is fighting cancer.

I also don’t think there are any of us who doesn’t know someone 

who has lost a loved one which includes Pregnancy Loss.

My first advice to you is to remember there isnt a GRIEF 101 

class or book.  People grieve in different ways but All need your Hugs.

Its easy to just try and avoid seeing them but that’s the worst thing

you can do.  

None Of Us are Immune to Grieving....We all will grieve many times

during our Lifetime. Would You Want To Be Ignored?

I think not.

So please remember all the parents and families who are grieving during

this Christmas Season. 

The best thing you can do for them is Listen!!

Most would love to tell you about their loved one who is no longer here. 

JUST LISTEN 

They have a story they would love to Share with You If you will just give 

them the opportunity. 

Never Tell Someone Grieving That It’s Time They Get Over It!!!

When It Comes To grief there is no Timetable!!

Just

Listen Embrace And Hug 

We All Could Use A Hug 

Hugs Do Heal 🤗🤗🤗

Merry Christmas
