"No one can tell you, of course, how long
or in what manner you 'should' grieve - your grief is unique.
But there are elements of bereavement that are more or less
common elements to all who pass through it. Understanding
these common elements and how others have dealt with them
can be of great help." --Amy Jenson, Healing Grief
Adult Bereavement
