It helped me a lot to let my dad go with the pain from him too. I came to work on the pain with losing my sister first; the more I did with the group I kept thinking of my dad.

Helped face a grief that has bothered me for years.

I was unable to deal with the loss of my sister. I was sad, angry and frustrated. The program helped me deal with the loss of my relationship with her and my desire for things to be different. I am able to cope with the fact that she is gone but will never be forgotten and I don't have to "put it behind me".

The program helped me navigate the recent loss of my dad. Both the book and the weekly classes / small groups helped me recognize different grief stages and my own reactions as well as how to understand myself better in the process.

It helped to find out that the different stages of grief that I was experiencing were normal. Also, that there is no time frame in getting over the grieving process. Also that we need to be completely honest with others when they ask "how are you doing?" and not to say just fine, because we really aren't "fine". It helped to meet in the small groups and hear others talk about their loss. I could identify with a lot that they said. It was especially helpful to write the letter to my husband and apologize, forgive (acknowledge), and share significant emotional statements. It was also helpful to say goodbye to complete the communication. It was an outstanding program, Gary was an excellent teacher and the book was very helpful. I will recommended this to anyone who has lost someone. It helps so much to be around others who are going through some of the same things. Thank you for making this class available. Linda Cotner

I was able to let go of most of the pain that was holding me back. I can’t say how much of my healing was from time vs new skills I learned, but I think the lions share was from the class.

The program helped me to move from an intellectual approach to grief over the death of my wife.to one in which I was able recognize and deal with various aspects of our relationship leading to an appropriate resolution and closure. As we worked through the program, I was able to also appropriately deal with several additional relationships that also needed attention. I would strongly recommend this program and this facilitator to anyone dealing with grief and loss.

The program helped me to remove the junk of grief in my “backpack” and get it out on paper and read to another person who was my heart with ears. I am doing much better after losing my daughter four months ago.

It helped me understand that grief is often amplified by undelivered communication, and offered me a path toward completion of that communication.

The program has worked for me in a very positive way. I learned a lot about myself and learned that I was dealing with things in the wrong way now that I have completed the program. I learned how to deal with different situations that have happened already and how to deal with my emotions and other people's emotions.

The program worked for me in a very positive way. I learned about myself and learned I was dealing with things in the wrong way.
