Where were you when I needed you?
The saddest question we ever hear is, "Where were you when I needed you?"
That's what people ask when they find out what we do in helping grievers. We're presenting helpful and accurate information on this site, at the time you need it most, with the hope that you'll never need to ask that question.
It's an honor and a sad privilege to be addressing you, knowing that each of you has recently experienced the death of someone important to you. We also know some of you are reading this because of your care and concern for someone who is confronted by the death of someone important in their life.
We bring our personal experience in dealing with the deaths of people who were important to us, and our professional know-how in helping grievers for more than 30 years. We'll help you distinguish between the "raw grief" that is your normal and natural reaction to the death, and the equally normal "unresolved grief" that relates to the unfinished emotions that are part of the physical ending of all relationships.
A basic reality for most grieving people is difficulty concentrating or focusing. With that in mind, we asked Tributes.com to print our articles in a large type font to make them easier to read. Sharing our concern for grieving people, they agreed.
From our hearts to yours,
John

Is Recovery from Grief and Loss Actually Possible?
When people hear the words grief and recovery together, they often say, "I didn't know that recovery from grief was even possible."
Unresolved grief is cumulative and cumulatively negative, and since time can't heal emotional wounds, it is essential that you learn how to grieve and complete the losses that have affected your life.
In this seventh installment of the Tributes.com - Grief Recovery Webinar Series, Russell Friedman, the co-creator of The Grief Recovery Method, tackles the topic of recovery from loss, and explains what recovery is and how it is possible for anyone.
Here is all that's needed:
- An open mind to the possibility of recovery
- Awareness that you may be emotionally incomplete with someone living or dead
- Courage and willingness to take the actions that lead to recovery
