Where's Hope?

People deal with the departure of loved ones in different ways. Death is inevitable. Regardless of how death affects you and your family, acceptance is necessary in order to maintain a healthy life of your own.

There are 7 Stages in The Grieving Process. They are as follows:

  1. Shock / Denial

  2. Pain / Guilt

  3. Anger / Bargaining

  4. Depression / Reflection / Loneliness

  5. The Upward Turn

  6. Reconstruction / Working Through

  7. Acceptance / Hope

Remember... You are not alone. We, AFACS, are here to help you find relief after your loved one's departure. 

On this first day without you.
our hearts fly at half-mast,
for our hero is gone.
Our hero is gone.

The world cheapens with your loss,
colors fade and purpose gone.
With empty swallows in choked throats,
we claw for smoke and shadow.

Beside the frail remains,
we tense, 
we fear,
we are empty.

With Earth's fresh dawn,
we echo your name,
crippled in spirit
and never the same.

This poem is a first-hand source of a few of the feelings that can occur during the grieving process. Remember, death is inevitable. You may feel extreme emotions due to a loss, but keep in mind that your loved one is in a much better environment than what he/she was in before they passed on.
