11 Oct New! 4 Week Pet Loss Support Group
New! Starting October 25
A four-week Pet Loss Support Group will meet Thursdays from 5:00 -6:30 beginning October 25th and ending November 15th at Brattleboro Area Hospice, 191 Canal Street in Brattleboro. Cheryl Richards is the facilitator.
Anyone who has experienced the death of a beloved furry, winged or scaly family member is deeply aware of how profound a loss this can be. The human – animal bond can be one of unsurpassed shared devotion, understanding, partnership and love. Saying goodbye to anyone we love is always a difficult experience. When the loved one is a companion animal, its grieving humans often feel isolated and lost, with the intensity of their grief going unrecognized or minimized by those around them.
This group is for adults who have experienced the death of their companion animal. Topics will include stories of love, joy, and loss, exploring and sharing methods of maneuvering through the grieving journey and examining how the human – animal connection has enriched our lives. To pre-register and for more information please call 802-257-0775.
