Seek grief support (counseling, GriefShare, faith communities), practical tasks and emotional healing both take time

Local hospice bereavement programs, faith communities, GriefShare groups, and licensed grief counselors. Many are free.

Contact the hospice that cared for them, since hospice bereavement services are usually free and open for about a year, whether or not you used hospice. Check whether your employer has an employee assistance program, which typically includes several free counseling sessions. Look for a local GriefShare or bereavement support group, since talking to people in the same position helps in a way advice does not. Tell your own doctor you are bereaved, particularly if sleep, appetite, or concentration are badly affected.
