Estate and Advance Care Planning for Blended Families
By Kirbee Anderson, JD
After a loss, it's hard to continue life as before. Everything feels different, and this can affect all aspects of our lives. Most of all, grief impacts our relationships with those around us.
After a loss, you might wish for things to return to how they were. Whether you wish to reconnect with loved ones or friends, you might discover these relationships don't feel the same. It's normal and common to struggle with maintaining family relationships after a loss, especially if this was a loss experienced within your family. Grief and loss change all things, including relationships. These rough seas ahead must be navigated together.
