 In the past 20 months I was on the Front Lines of what Tony Fauci created to destroy our Republic and our Citizens. There was a lot of Bereavement among those who were not able to bury their "Loved Ones" I was there to provide Excellent Care to them. I have traveled to numerous cities to Care that was requested from many of these families. 

I am Back online to provide the Most Up-to-Date Information on Death and Dying that many DO NOT Understand Fully.  

Iam currently on Rumble, Parler, and Telegram to receive further information. I have written 3 Beautiful Speeches regarding on Death and Dying, Understanding Bereavement, as well as other Topics. Please Contact Jaki Baskow at the Las Vegas Speakers Bureau at (702) 547-5119 to schedule a Live Presentation.

Coping With A Funeral

When the death of a loved one occurs, regardless or whether it was expected or not, you will find yourself having to deal with a great number of people. Some you will know closely, others may be complete strangers; all will be claiming some kind of relationship to the deceased.

Whilst grieving for your loved one you may find yourself not wanting contact with anybody other than those to whom you are closest. Having to deal with so many people can be very difficult so it's important to understand how to handle them.

Relatives and Close Friends

Those who were close to the deceased need to be contacted before the funeral. When you break the news, remember that they will also need the chance to express their grief and this must be respected, no matter how deeply distressed you are feeling yourself.

Sometimes it can be difficult, if not impossible, to trace certain family members. Don't feel guilty if you've not been able to contact all of them.

Some of those who you'll need to contact may be people who you do not know personally. If they come to the funeral and you have not been able to speak to them properly it would be a good idea to write or telephone them later, to thank them for attending.

The Small Funeral

Perhaps you have decided on a small funeral, either through your own personal preference or because the deceased made their own preference clear. Perhaps the financial side of the funeral will force you into this decision. Make the decision clear and stick to it.

You may find that some friends or relatives insist on attending even after you've explained this to them. Be polite but firm. Explain that you appreciate their wish to attend, but that it is a family decision to enforce such a restriction. If they still insist, they are simply being insensitive and you may have to take a different approach. You might tell them that the date of the funeral has not yet been decided and leave things at that. Whatever you do, don't allow anyone to emotionally blackmail you into changing your decision. And don't feel guilty if you need to lie. They are being insensitive, and you are simply trying to deal with matters as best you can.

Polite Conversation

Unless the funeral is very small it will probably be impossible for you to speak to all of the attendees. Don't even try. Most people will understand that you are not going to feel like making polite conversation. You will find that those will any degree of sensitivity will simply approach you, kiss your cheek/shake your hand and offer their condolences. They will not expect more than you are able to offer.

The Wake

Most people organize some form of refreshment after the funeral. This can be a good way of accepting condolences from those you were unable to speak with during the actual service. By offering refreshments you are showing that you are willing to share your grief with those who are also suffering through their own loss.

Enlist the help of a friend or two. You may feel that you will be able to cope but having support close by will be very helpful should you find that you are feeling too upset to appear.

The Will

It's an unfortunate fact that funerals can often bring out the worst in people. Some of the most long-lasting family arguments have started at a funeral,
with squabbles over who should get what. You may find yourself surprised at just who is able to throw themselves into such arguments, even though they are in the midst of their own grief.

You may find yourself being quizzed at the graveside. People can be very clever in their approach, offering condolences and then adding the innocent question of what the deceased has left to whom. You may also find yourself the target of malicious comments regarding your 'improved financial situation'. There can be more hidden rivalry within families than most would imagine.

You mustn't allow yourself to be drawn into arguments. Simply pretend to ignore any unwanted comments and questions. If they persist, explain that you are far too upset to think about such matters at the moment and that if they've been mentioned in the will then they will be contacted in due course.

In the case of a will never having been made and where there is any disagreement regarding who has the right to what, explain that you will appoint a solicitor to handle the estate and explain, as above, that they will be contacted in due course.

The Following Days

Some people find themselves terribly alone in the days following the funeral, whereas others feel that they never have any time to themselves to grieve. Remember that others cannot read your mind anymore than you can read theirs, they're simply doing what they believe to be right.

If they choose to stay away, they are probably doing so out of respect for your privacy. If they choose to spend as much time as possible with you, this will be because they fear for your ability to cope alone. Explain to them what your needs are. If you need people around you, phone some friends and ask them to visit. If you need to be alone, explain this politely and ask if you may phone them should you need their company. You'll find that most people are very accommodating as long as they understand your needs.

The loss of a loved one is never easy and nobody will ever expect it to be. For some the funeral seems to pass as just a hazy memory, leaving a feeling of guilt at not remembering the details of this last farewell. Remember that it's the memories you have of the person when alive that are important, and it's these that will remain clear to you in the future. During deep grief it can be very difficult to grasp details of what's happening but this does not mean you didn't care. Quite the opposite in fact.

Bereavement Points

Bereavement is commonly known as a section of sorrow from sudden or death with a parent, child, and other close family, and friends. In the advent of all the perils, which have encroached upon our Nation under the title of “Culture of Death” has now brought into the parameters of bereavement employment, relationships, and pets.
Bereavement in general does not always meet up with approving thoughts. One would think bereavement counseling is for “L” loser. A loser would be the one who does not seek out the proper care of his/her life. In the results can lead to one of the other levels of why one can suffer from torment depression. This torment depression can also lead to lack of performance in employment settings, decrease in expressing feelings to your spouse’s/fiancĂ©es, and having your kitty or puppy bit you.
Bereavement support is ever necessary to readjust to become the person one is to be prior to the death (human/pet), divorce, and work. Without having the proper directional support in one’s life can become very miserable, along with thoughts of doom/gloom, poor me, and what happened. Of course there are many other thoughts, which will martialize during the moment of grief/sorrow.
Bereavement can become a painless and comforting moment in 12 month period. Bereavement is the time where one can heal from all the trauma of the eventful loss.
I am not saying that your hurt and pains will not continue to linger. To have lingering moments, where one could wake up in a cold sweat not have their loved one and or four legged family member near them. The best element of bereavement is just speaking what you are feeling to release all the important thoughts out to a counselor that will direct one back into a stable balance of life.
Very important to contact Dr. Losito, when there is a loss of both human and pet life, relationships, and employment.
