      Treatments

      Crying Working / Worked
      I cried more in the early months. I still break down sometimes. It does help to get out the crying.
      Grief Counseling Not Working
      Did not feel any connection
      Prayer Working / Worked
      I pray all the time. It is one thing that I can do.
      Support Groups Working / Worked
      I attend the Miss Foundation once a month and it is a great help. It is a place that is safe where i can feel anything and say anything.
      Scrapbooking Working / Worked
      Scrapbooking has helped me tremendously. It allows me to grieve at my time, when I choose.
      Art Working / Worked
      This was wonderful! A family therapy with other families who have suffered a loss. Family projects followed by a support group. Children went into their own groups.
