Stories of Grief by Those Who Survived and Thrived

"Losing my husband abruptly from COVID crushed me to the brink of broken heart syndrome. Attending group meetings taught me, through the authentic souls viewed on my laptop screen, that I was not alone on my path.  I could be inspired by those who were more experienced than me and I could be supportive to those who were at  the beginning of their loss."

"Papillion gave me a place where I could speak honestly about what I was experiencing without feeling judged. I was surrounded by people who understood that grief does not follow a schedule and that healing does not happen overnight.”

"So much of this is simply showing up and letting folks know they are not alone and that time can make things better. Whether it’s cancer survivors or someone experiencing fresh grief, it is rewarding to see your own story helping them.”

"I just didn’t understand how deep grief was. For me going through it taught me a lot about being a human and made a better person out of me ... Papillon made everyone feel welcome, whether you’re brand new or had been going for months.”
