All of my ramblings on one site ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - "Hey Brianna, Thank you so much for reaching out to us and for inviting us into your grandma's story. Our hearts are heavy for your family's loss. Please know that all of your family and friends are currently in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We want you to know we hear you and you are not alone. We would like to share with you a couple of blogs we have posted in the past, which we believe could really provide a sense of hope and community for you, friends, and family during this time. The first blog is titled "I Wish I Did More" and the author shares her experience of finding out about the sudden death of a close friend. She also highlights the importance of having important conversations with loved ones. The second blog is titled "So Wild, So Open, So Fast," in which a recent TWLOHA Intern discusses his recent learning of his grandmother's attempted suicide 37 years ago. Brianna, we would also like to place an emphasis on self-care during this time. Coping with the loss of a loved one can be a very difficult process for family and friends, but we want you to know you are not alone. We're in this together. We will stand with you during this journey. If you are ever in need of finding help or information, please visit our FIND HELP page or share it with others. We believe your grandma's story matters, and we appreciate so much that you shared it with us. While we can't promise we can share your story on TWLOHA's platform, we want to encourage you to find a space to tell this story to others, whether online or in-person. At TWLOHA, we believe in starting honest conversation and inviting your community into your story in a healthy way. Thank you again, Brianna, for sharing your grandma's story with us. We are humbled to have been invited into her life, and know that she certainly plays a role in ours. Thank you also, for wanting to encourage others to have these important conversations. You are a beautiful light within your community. Please do not hesitate to visit our booth at the Vans Warped Tour date in West Palm Beach. We would love to say hello. With Hope, 2:26 p.m. - 2013-07-09 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
