My father died last year, and I have been going through the grieving process. At times, it has been intensely sad, infuriating, crazy-making and acutely painful. Sometimes, all at once. I was helped greatly by attending Swedish Hospital's "Journey through Grief to Hope" program.
Since the intensity of each person's grief process is so different, even for different losses, it is important to have understanding and acceptance that people need varying levels of support and for various lengths of time. My hope is that this evening of artistic expression will illuminate the process and encourage people to ask for the support they need.
