A new Seven Week Bereavement Support Group for adults begins on May 3rd and will meet each Tuesday from 5:00-6:30 pm, ending June 14th. The group is free of charge and open to anyone in the community grieving the death loss of a loved one, no matter when or where the loss occurred.
Bereavement Support Groups offer a safe, mutually supportive environment for sharing experiences through discussion, readings, simple activities, and suggestions for moving through grief. This group is sponsored by Brattleboro Area Hospice and will meet at the hospice office at 191 Canal St. in Brattleboro.
No prior connection with hospice is necessary in order to participate. Connie Baxter will be the facilitator. The group size is limited to 8 people. Please call (802) 257-0775 x104 by April 29th for a pre-group appointment if you’re interested in joining.

Those interested in bereavement and who enjoy Big Bang Theory might be interested in the blog of Mayim Bialik. It’s called GrokNation and she’s spent a fair amount of the last year documenting her grief over the death of her father.
She also writes about current events, the TV show, being a single mom, and more.

Good grief!
“For when my outward action doth demonstrate
The native act and figure of my heart
In compliment extern, ’tis not long after
But I will ‘wear my heart upon my sleeve’
For daws to peck at: I am not what I am.”
