Available nationwide; callers do not have to be VITAS patients or families.
Resources for coping with grief and loss
Grief is a natural response to loss, and it often feels stronger on holidays like Mother's Day, especially when remembering a mother or mother-figure who has died. There is no right way to grieve or timeline for healing, but sharing your experience, learning how others cope and seeking grief support or bereavement counseling can help you navigate these emotions.
