This DVD explores how three individuals experienced loss when someone close to them died and traces how their grief changed with the passage of time.

Supported throughout by experienced counsellors and counselling trainers the participants are sensitively and carefully held by the practitioners who gently place the experience of death in a framework which enables the viewer to gain a powerful felt sense of the experience of loss as well as offering a theoretical perspective.

These real life stories include an in-depth account of a widows reaction to her husbands shocking and untimely death, look at how a widower coped with the desolation he felt after his wife died, and chronicle the agonising experience of a mother losing her young child.

Interwoven throughout the filmed narrative there are also moments of reflection and commentary, and references to the importance that ritual, folk wisdom and poetry can play in enabling people experiencing bereavement to cope with their grief.

  • Work. That's where he was when it happened. And I don't like thinking of that day at all. Only I don't get a choice b/c, every year, we're forced to relive his death and there's nothing at all we can do to stop it.

    We can't even go to an airport w/out being forced to think about things we'd rather not consider; like the fact that if they'd done all that damn stuff all along, he'd still be here now.

  • My daughter's dad didn't even get to HAVE a grave. His final remains were never recovered.

    People believe final remains make no difference, I was one of them until it happened to me, but seeing the body makes this huge significance.

    My daughter's dad, my former Partner, was brutally murdered in Tower 1 on September 11, 2001.

    So I CAN'T stand at his grave and weep.

    I stand there and wonder if he ever really died-or if I'm dreaming it.

    You HAVE to see the remains or you'll never fully believe it.

  • helpful as it stands as a youtube shortie thank you
