One loss usually triggers a whole lot more. I often liken it to a jigsaw puzzle – when one piece goes missing the whole puzzle is affected and isn’t held together anymore. It doesn’t look the same anymore. So, when one piece of your life is changed or is “lost”, other pieces like companionship, finances, friendships, holidays, mealtimes, outings, family gatherings, daily routines, and a whole lot more… all change too. Learning to adapt to these changes is sometimes called your ‘grief work’ – and only you can do this work for yourself.
