Testimonials

  • When I found WYG, and began reading articles that articulated in some organized way, the ramblings, thoughts, and feelings that flooded my heart and mind, it was such a relief. I suddenly felt like I could breath and that I wasn't alone in my grief; that I wasn't going crazy or grieving "wrong".

  • You have helped me immeasurably find my way along this tough road. You've given me the strength to say no and the courage to say yes when both were needed. You are shining lights in a dark time. Thank you from the bottom of my broken (but healing) heart.

  • This site had been a light in a dark time. Hearing others stories, reading the articles and just being a part of it has made the loss almost manageable.

  • I found this site right before my dad became ill and died unexpectedly 26 days later. Every day I read the posts and instantly knew I was not alone. The posts often prepare me for what I may not realize is approaching. Best grief site ever.

  • The online class "Navigating Your Grief" was very helpful. Having a community to share with and support others is so nice. It's kind of like group therapy online. I highly recommend WYG to anyone who is experiencing loss and grief.

  • I love your page. I like that I'm able to share your articles with family and friends. I'll say "this is me" or "read this to understand my children." So, it's given my support system ways to help me because it's educational but in a really easy to read way.
