My Experience

Interestingly, I had already started looking into my aunt's passing 53 years ago. All the years previously I had refused/or couldn't watch documentaries or read books about her death (It was a very high-profile situation at the time). The Grief Recovery Method was perfect timing. It let me be thorough and specific in my grief processing and completion of that relationship. If the Method had not been available, I don't think I would have been able to take full advantage of my open mindedness to re-visit my past and the death of my mentor and, really, idol, when I was 13. I really got to see she was just a human being like the rest of us, that there were reasons the tragedy happened that had nothing to do with her - the fickleness of nature, the limitations of humans. I was able to tell her how much she meant to me, forgive her for dying, and apologize for holding onto the grief with my closed minded view of the tragedy. The Grief Recovery Method helped me open up the death and not be swallowed up by it.
