St Croix Hospice continues to think of you as it has been a year since your loved one died. Although grief is a life-long process, it is our hope that you have experienced some healing over the past year.
Grief can catch you off guard as intense feelings pop up when you least expect. It could be something you smell, hear, or see that makes your grief raw again. However, as time goes by, those grief attacks come less often and with softened intensity.
Officially, St Croix’s bereavement follow up will end 13 months after your loved one’s death; however, if there is a time when your grief hits you hard and you would like a place to talk about it, please feel free to call a member of the bereavement team toll free at (855) 278-2764.
If you are at a place in your grief where you feel led to give back in honor of your loved one, St. Croix Hospice offers a variety of in-person and virtual volunteer opportunities. If this is something you feel led to be a part of, please email volunteer@stcroixhospice.com, we’d love to connect you with a chance to make a difference in the lives of other patients and families .
On behalf of St. Croix Hospice,
