When someone that we love dies, every fibre in our heing attempts to deny that the death has taken place. Admis- sion to the death of someone in whom we have a strong emotional investment. such as a mother. father or spouse, is an admission that we- must make major adustrnents in our lives. This adjustment is painful. From the time we are horn. our automatic response to pain is to run from it. The first time we touched something hot we jerked our hand away from the hot object to avoid the pain. If we felt no pain our hand would he badly damaged. With this in mind let us realize that pain is a positive rather than a negative ex- perience. Pain sensors are . something which are incor- porated into a human heing which tell us that something is wrong and -are therefore pro- tective to us. II we have a sore stomach we know that something inside our bodies is not functioning properly. We then seek a' specialist in the function of the human body, a medical doc- tor, w ho can assess the disfunction and suggest some method of correcting the pro- blem. Once the problem is corrected, our body would he working properly again and the pain would he gone. Oc- casionally' the corrective pro- cedure involves an operation. Although the operation would he painful for a time, it would heal and we would he healthy again. If we rejected the operation because it was pain- ful. the pain would grow con- tinually stronger indicating that the problem is worsening until eventually. we would die. When srnneo rc close to us dies. we experience emo- tional pain. We feel this emo- tional pain because something is wrong. Knowing that something within us is wrong. we should seek out a profes- sional who will help us correct the problem so that we can regain our health. The professional in the circumstances of death is a funeral director. The funeral director will talk with you and assess your needs. He will then suggest an exercise, or funeral, which may be painful for a time (like an operation) hut will establish a solid foun- dation for the healing process of grief, which will return us to an emotional state of normalcy. We could take medication which would temporarily relieve the symptoms of physical pain when our body isn't working properly, however. the problem would still exist and probably con- tinue to worsen. -And so it is with the emotional pain of the death of a, loved one. We could numb our minds with drugs or alcohol to temporari- ly relieve the symptoms or pain of our grief, but, we are far better off to face up to the temporary pain of a funeral and our loss so that we can begin to heal, emotionally, and become whole once again. Every individual life is unique and therefore the needs of every individual are unique. When a death occurs in your family, place yourself under the care of a professional funeral director who is train- dd to assess your needs and prescribe an exercise which will help you qtablish a foun- dation on which you can build your healing process of grief. This healing process of grief will carry you back to an emo- tionally healthy life once again. For more information on the value of the funeral or the healing process of grief con- tact your local member OFSA funeral director. Bruce C.
