Dinner and Grief
A Life After Loss Support Group
A New Year for some symbolizes a new beginning. This can be very difficult for those who have suffered a recent loss, or a loss in general. CTMC Family Grief Center invites participants to its “Dinner and Grief: Life After Loss” program. This program is designed by the American Cancer Society to help bereaved people better understand the process of grief and how to live through it in a healing way. It also provides a place for people to share their experiences and to support each other in their grief. The Life After Loss Adult Support Group will meet for five weeks at 6 p.m. beginning Jan. 21. There is no cost to attend. Call Abel Rodriguez at (512) 754-0322 to register.
