I had hoped to get this vlog posted earlier, but I had to go to the doctor with a foot issue. Such is life with chronic health issues. Actually, this turned out to be an ingrown toenail. Not a huge deal, but painful nonetheless. I didn't want to put off getting it taken care of any longer as my toe was sore, a bit red and a little puffy. Yow! So, off I went to the doctor's office. Now, I have a whopping bandage on the toe until tomorrow morning when I can downsize to a Band-Aid.
Anyway, on to today's vlog topic. In this video, I talk about how to help a friend deal with loss. That loss can be due to death, moving, abandonment, misunderstanding, or suicide. I also discuss loss of a child, parent/grandparent, spouse, partner, job, and house. What to say, what not to say, what to do--I talk about it.
Have you ever helped your friend through a loss? Has a friend helped you? What helped you as a griever and what didn't? Did a friend tell you what you did that helped him/her the most during their difficult time? I'd love for you to share your experiences either in the comments below or through email (amy@acnlifecoach.com). Thank you.
