Losing someone close to you can be a profound and emotionally devastating experience. When someone chooses medical assistance in dying (MAID), it can result in feelings and experiences that are different than with other deaths.

Wellspring is offering an eight-week support group this fall that provides a safe environment for you to share your story and feelings and meet with others who are also grieving the loss of a partner or family member.

Caring for a loved one with a serious illness is demanding, and grief can often begin long before a loss occurs. Whether it’s grieving a change in plans or a loss of independence, it is important to remember these feelings are a normal response.

Health Canada’s new resources explain how palliative care can support caregivers' emotional, spiritual, and practical needs at any stage. Download the guide here: https://loom.ly/3Aye2Ks

Grief doesn’t move in neat stages. It can show up in the present (your day-to-day life), reach back into the past (memories, regrets, longing), and hit you in the future (milestones, fears, what will never be). And sometimes it all shows up at once.

If you’ve been thinking, “I should be further along,” this is your reminder: you’re not doing grief wrong. You’re experiencing how big grief really is.

Save this for the days you need the reminder.

ART SILENT AUCTION FUNDRAISER

We are having a silent auction to raise funds for our grief group room upgrades and grief groups.

You might be a therapist or artist yourself, looking to fill your own walls with art that isn’t from big box, mass produced stores. Our practice walls are filled with the art from myself and my family, but upon my dad’s death, we are looking to continue to share his art. As well as the art that I create and from my mother. It's a family thing.

Lark and Raven support those who are grieving, and we have noticed a need for a grief support group specifically for su***de loss. We want to provide this support at a very manageable low cost rate for participants. We also need our group room to be updated with a more cozy and comfortable vibe to host these groups.

The auction will be open until May 1st (the full flower moon) and new pieces will be added in the coming weeks.

Thank you for your support!

**** Important to note that all artwork is to be picked up in CALGARY ALBERTA, as there is NO DELIVERY or SHIPPING. So please only bid if this is accessible to you as all sales are final ****
