Hello

I am glad to be part of this group.  I hopefully can share my story and share in the stories of others.  Grief is such a personal journey, yet it is also universally felt by everyone at some time.  Being able to share my feelings and concerns will be very helpful on my journey through grief.  I am not sure what exactly to say in this fisrt post, so I will keep it brief.  I look forward to sharing and communicatiing with all of you.  Thank you.
