Editor:
My son’s sudden death one year ago left a gaping hole in my heart.
An ad in the Coast Reporter community calendar caught my eye for Tea & Company: a weekly drop-in group for those who are bereaved.
I began to attend this support group, as well as commit to an eight-week bereavement support program run by trained facilitators.
The Sunshine Coast Hospice Society became a lantern of light, instilling rays of hope back into my life.
This circle of support allowed me to learn the stages of grief, acknowledged the need to mourn in my own way, meet others who suffered loss, and experience deep healing through the cathartic process of telling our stories.
We are fortunate to have SC Hospice as an invaluable resource that equips and engages its volunteers, touching hearts and transforming lives forever within our community.
You do not have to go through this alone. Find out more at: www.coasthospice.com.
