The 5 Stages of Grief and Loss:
1. Denial and isolation; 2. Anger; 3. Bargaining; 4. Depression; 5. Acceptance. People who are grieving do not necessarily go through the stages in the same order or experience all of them.

Resources in British Columbia

The Charlene Reaveley Children’s Charity was created to offer support and assistance to grieving children and their families.  What was needed in Dan’s experience was counselling without financial burden, access to books and resources within the community and a connection to families who were also experiencing a loss in their lives.
