There are many great books, websites, support groups, and counselors to help you through the grieving process. I must admit that I have not been able to bring myself to read many of them, but God has placed numerous encouragers in my life who have had read them, and these people were able to share nuggets of wisdom from those resources.
Even if your child did not go through hospice, your local hospice office may know of a camp to help your other children work through their grief. Simply sitting with my children and listening to them share about the activities they participated in brought a balm to my soul. The hospice staff should also be able to get you in touch with a grief counselor and/or support group for yourself.
Likewise, we received a catalog of grief resources from the Centering Corporation and Grief Digest Magazine. It contains numerous books and items. Their website is www.centering.org.
I will continue to add information as I come along it, or as I remember it!
