Dying, death and grief are a natural part of our human experience. Talking about it, however, may not come as naturally. Join us for a livestream and conversation about grief and resilience. Lucy Hone is an author, speaker, researcher and mother, who experienced the sudden death of her daughter Abby from a motor vehicle accident. Lucy’s TED Talk on the three characteristics of grief has been viewed over nine million times. Lucy is also a best-selling author which includes her book "Resilient Grieving" which details how she lives and copes with her own unimaginable personal loss.

A light lunch and refreshments will be provided.

This event is presented by the Canadian Alliance for Grieving Children (CACG) and brought to your community by Hospice Wellington, The Guelph Public Library and The Nightingale Centre for Grieving Children, Youth and Families.
