Helping Children Cope With Balloon Messages

This article shows the importance of communication in dealing with loss and moving forward. Even adults are shocked by loss and sometimes don’t know what to do, but we must always communicate and have support. A woman whose brother died shielded her two kids from some of the earlier decisions, but she later realized that the kids were as shocked as she about the death. This family began communication by sending balloons up to their uncle, which allowed them all to talk about their grief. http://funeralplan.com/griefsupport/balloons.html
