Profile Information
- About Me:
- I live in Burlington, Ontario. I holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing from McMaster University and has worked in the community health care field since 1976. I am the author of “Baby Boomers Face Grief – Survival and Recovery".
My work has included dealing with palliative clients and their bereaved families for the past two decades and also assists facilitating grief support groups. I have been involved with both residential hospices that opened in my region as well as the palliative care initiatives.
- About my Loss:
- I lost my mother 18 years ago and it was facing that loss and recognizing the way society deals with grief that was why I wrote the book. I know that different losses create different reactions and it is about the relationship you had with the person who has died.
- Are You a Service Provider? If Yes, please tell us about your service.
- I present on a regular basis to many community groups, hospices, volunteer groups and businesses. Companies concerned about lost productivity have embraced workshops on the effect of grief in the workplace.
As well I have presented to the Bereavement Ontario Network annual meeting and the Canadian Hospice and Palliative Care Conference in 2007 and Roswell Park Cancer Institute in September 2009. My website it www.boomergrief.com

Being the Other Woman/Other Man
This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief
Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More
Assumptions
An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true. Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions. This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
