You’d need to be . . . Larger.

Life brings twists and turns. Don’t be afraid to tackle the “what ifs,” but don’t get lost in them either. It’s ok to hope for the best!

The Koala-T stickers have been in hi demand, so added others, such as this anticipatory rodent to my site. https://t.co/obuKsrmtnl

The “existential slap” - concrete awareness of closeness of death - is different from pondering in the abstract about dying… suddenly jolting grief, search for meaning, and often surprising feelings that a person didn’t expect when death was an idea. (1/5)

Empathy 101. I call it “The Throw-Pillow Rule of Thumb.” (Redraw of a cartoon I made a few years ago, but still a good reminder for all of us, myself included, when I’m tempted to fill up meaningful silence with platitudes.)

A few weeks ago, our awesome social worker Michelle McWhirter brought a patient a hot dog he’d been craving during a dark moment in his hospital stay. It was far more effective than any pill that day. Asking, are frankfurters within usual scope of practice? :)

After my own experience of grief/loss this year, I 100% agree with the more recent thinking that grief doesn’t necessarily happen in linear stages… To me, it’s more like a group of tag team wrestlers taking turns in the ring.
