Bridge Bereavement Services, a division of Blanchard Valley Health System, will host its December presentation of the “Living through Loss” series on Monday, Dec. 16, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. 

This presentation, “Guilt, Anger and Challenges” takes place in Marathon Auditorium at Blanchard Valley Hospital, 1900 S. Main St. Findlay. Light refreshments will be provided.

“Guilt, Anger and Challenges” will discuss the range of emotions individuals may feel after the loss of a loved one, particularly guilt and anger. 

Often, those suffering a loss may feel they could have done more for their loved one before they passed, or even feel angry with themselves for failing to cope as quickly as they had hoped. 

“Guilt, Anger and Challenges” will focus on understanding these emotions and how the journey of grief is affected with an emphasis on finding practical ways to manage these feelings. An opportunity of discussion will follow.

“Living Through Loss” is a nine-month educational series that focuses on the issues surrounding the death of a loved one. 

Each monthly presentation is open to the public and registration is not required. Presentations are held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in the Marathon Auditorium. 

Presentations provide information related to the grief process and offer opportunities for discussion. Although the thought of speaking up in a group can be intimidating, many attendees find the discussion helpful as they discover their questions and concerns are similar to others. 

A bereavement expert is available to speak with attendees in private following the presentation.
