Grief is a natural emotive-reaction to death or loss. Since death (loss) comes without invitation, it happens with great suddenness. It produces feelings of what could have been, and what should have been. It is painful and involves sadness, physical discomfort, guilt and depression.

Shock, disbelief, emotional outbursts
Preoccupation in thought with the deceased or lost object
Past losses that were not resolved may surface
Displays of anger, bitterness toward self, others and professionals
Develop depression demonstrated by inability to sleep, poor quality of sleep, nightmares, loss of interest or gain of appetite, social withdrawal, loss of interest in former activities, poor memory, confusion difficulty in sorting out thoughts and addictions to short term solutions
Suffer from separation anxiety
Exhibit self-destructive behavior
Experience ambivalence
Idealize the deceased
Experience anniversary reactions

WYUKA has thoughtfully planned a Grief Resolution Outreach Program to provide information and empathic support to grievers during the highly stressful time of loss.

WYUKA caregivers provide a forum that is highly interactive and allows the confidential sharing of experience with others who will not judge but accept and respect expressions of loneliness, bitterness, fears, love and maybe even a sense of relief.
