Fun Fact Friday!
When the legendary composer Frédéric Chopin passed away in 1849, he had a request: his heart should be taken from his body and safeguarded in his homeland. Today, that very heart is sealed in a jar inside a church in Warsaw—a fascinating piece of music history!

To Embalm or Not to Embalm?
It’s a question many families face when planning a farewell. Is embalming necessary, or is it a matter of personal choice? In our latest blog, we explore what embalming means, why it’s done, and the alternatives available. Link is in the comments.

The holiday season can feel heavy when grief is part of the picture. Traditions, expectations, and the pressure to “be festive” can be overwhelming. It’s okay to step back, set boundaries, and do what feels right for you. Protecting your heart matters—especially now. If you need support, we’re here for you. Please reach out anytime.

Grief is hard enough without the silent pressure of shoulds.
I should host. I should be happier. I should keep traditions going.
But you don’t owe the world a festive version of yourself.
You’re allowed to set boundaries.
You’re allowed to choose what you can manage.
And you’re allowed to protect your heart—especially at this time of year.

If the expectations feel overwhelming, give yourself permission to do only what feels right for you.

It’s Fun Fact Friday!
We’ve dug up a fascinating piece of history for you today. One that might make you raise an eyebrow (or two)! A tradition from ancient times that’s as shocking as it is intriguing.

It’s that time of year when we love to say THANK YOU!
Our amazing team has been busy baking shortbread and chocolate chip cookies, packaging them with care, and creating handmade cards – all to show appreciation for the incredible caregivers and rest homes who make a difference every day.
Every treat is handmade with love by our staff, and taste-tested by Dave (he approves! ).
From all of us at H Morris, thank you for everything you do!
