Loss, grief, and dying are natural but deeply emotional parts of the human experience. Loss can take many forms—not only the death of a loved one but also the loss of health, independence, or meaningful relationships. Grief is the process through which individuals respond to these losses, and it can affect people emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Everyone grieves differently, and there is no right or wrong way to go through it. Dying is a sensitive phase of life, and it often brings fear, sadness, and reflection. Respect, compassion, and understanding are essential in supporting those who are grieving or facing the end of life.
