Bereavement-children Quote by Pam K. McCarty
““You will grieve for a lifetime. Each person should be allowed to grieve in his or her own way and time. Some prefer the company of others, while others need space to be alone. Grief will never fully leave, but it should change as the healing journey progresses and we move through grief’s various stages.””
