HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1983-06-08, Page 15There's BY SUSAN HUNDERTMARK The funeral is over. Friends and relatives have gone home leaving you with a house full of sympathy cards and wilting Dowers. The house is silent and as the numbness from the shock of the death wears off, you're left with an aching emptiness inside you. Things are far from back to normal; you've only begun the grieving process. Lt's absolutely essential to grieve," says Catherine Walsh, nursing director of the Huron County Health Unit. Eleven public health nurses from the Health Unit visit families who have lost a child in particular to help them through the grieving process. "We encourage them to talk about their feelings. There is a tendency for a family to break up because of unexpressed feelings; sometimes members need an outside person to help them work through their grief," she says. Outside help is especially needed today because families are so far apart they can't always be there to help the bereaved. "Today we live in a mobile society with increasing advances in medical technology, with people living longer and a decrease in family size. Death is an infrequent visitor and we have become a death denying society," says Connie Osborn, co-ordinator of the Palliative Care Service at the Goderich Alexandra Marine and General Hospital. VOLUNTEERS Supporting the bereaved is one of the principles on the free Palliative Care Service, which concentrates of the emotion- Londesboro students have recital Faffiaoy hope in Huron County for the bereaved THE HURON EXPOSITOR, JUNE 8, 1883 --- A15 al needs of patients and their families, while the doctors and nurses deal with their physical needs. One of 12 volunteers at the Cioderich hospital will stay with the family of a dying patient before and after the death to let them talk about their feelings and let them know that their fellings are normal. J The volunteers are referred by a family doctor and are called on for emergencies 24 hours.a day. "A doctor will call a volunteer if it looks like someone needs some support. A widow sitting in the waiting room following the sudden death of her husband might need a volunteer to let her talk, make phone calls for her ve her a hot drink or wait with her until her family arrives," says Mrs. Osborn. The service will also send volunteers to the bereaved family's home to offer support and a sympathetic ear. Although the volunteers go through a eight week training course which deals with all aspects of death and dying, Mrs. Osborn says that anyone who is willing to listen can help someone through his grief. "It's so important to listen and to let them cry without changing the subject," she says. While the Palliative Care Service gives immediate help to the bereaved, it also encourages ongoing support at self-help groups such as the Bereaved Parents Support Group at University Hospital in London. "When friends and other family mem- bers grow, tired of hearing them talk about their dead child, this group can be one of or possibly the only place where bereaved parents can find support," says Janice Burden, the social worker who runs the group. - CHANCE TO TALK Because death is an uncomfortable subject, friends will not mention the dead person's name to spare the family from the pain of thinking about him. But the family is probably already thinking about him and would welcome a chance to talk, she says. The group brings together the people who are experiencing the same pain of losing a child to sudden death. Parents who have lost children to illness can find a similar group at the Children's War Memorial Hospital in London. There they can share the fear that their child will be forgotten and find others who are willing to listen to those fears. At the group, they also learn how to deal with remarks from unthinking people such as, "At least you have three other children" or "You can always have another child." And, they learn that they're not going crazy because'thelr grief is continuing after a couple of months. Bereavement could last a couple of years or more. Those who are intimidated by a group, can also find help from a psychiatrist, or one of three social workers in the psychiatric unit of the Huron Counts, Health Unit. 1f a bereaved person still needs to talk about his grief a few months after the death; public health nurses who have been making visits will refer him to psychiatric care. Spiritual help for both the dying patient and the family is available at the Seaforth Community Hospital with the nine-month . old pastoral care program. "Frequently the spiritual needs of the dying are overlooked in general hospital settings," says Connie Osborn. Pastoral. care is one of the ways to meet these needs. Approximately 10 ministers In the Seaforth area visit with dying patients in the hospital and help them deal with the religious and philosophical questions which a patient and his firmly face with impending death, They also visit just to be there for moral support. There's no question that going through the process of grieving is difficult. As Joyce Schenck, whose son died leas than a year ago says, bereavement is hard work. "Although I was only doing the minimum of housework right after the funeral, I was exhausted every night before bed. I realized that 1 was tired because 1 was worklng all day trying to deal with my feelings," she says. 'But, you don't have to do it alone - there are people and groups out there who can help.
