#64 When It Feels like Sharing My Grief Will Overwhelm Loved Ones

Join family therapists and authors Ken Dolan-Del Vecchio and Nancy Saxton-Lopez for a conversation that includes discussion of the concern that sharing one's grief may overburden those with whom we choose to share. We'll share the story of an audience member who voices this concern. We'll also talk about the grief that follows a death directly related to a pet owner's error. We welcome your comments, questions and suggestions for future topics. Nancy can be reached at nsaxtonlopez@csmpc.com and Ken at kenddv@gmail.com. When you send us a personal story please include mention of whether or not you would be okay with us sharing it within a future episode.
