Coping with Grief

 

A senior living in Allegany, Bill Glose came to Catholic Charities in grief after his wife died. The two were extremely close and shared their lives together. When she passed, Bill felt completely lost.

“For the first time in my life I found myself in a situation I didn’t know how to handle,” said Bill.

One thing Bill knew was that he needed counseling. He called organizations, churches and parishes and discovered that where he lives there is little help for a senior dealing with grief. He eventually called Catholic Charities, where he learned to put life back in perspective.

“I still have a ways to go with this, but Catholic Charities helped me to know that I was not losing my mind, that life was still worth living, and to start caring about what I did and how I did it,” he said.
