Grief and loss are universal experiences. While universal they are isolated experiences, even within a community. The loss of my father at sixteen is incomparable to my sister’s loss of her father at twenty, as well as my mothers loss of her husband. Our losses are unparalleled to my grandmother’s loss of her son. While we all have each other for support, our individual struggles are left to us to navigate on our own.
