Offering support to a loved one requesting medical assistance in dying
In Canada, people suffering from a grievous and irremediable illness or physical disability and whose condition is deteriorating have the right to request medical assistance in dying (MAID). Is your loved one in this situation? Have they shared their wishes with you?
Grief and the Holidays
The holidays, especially Christmas and New Year’s, can be a very difficult time for those coping with grief. The joyful and merry spirit that typically prevails gives way to feelings of sadness and loneliness, which only deepen with every gathering with friends and family, and every awkward (albeit well-meaning) comment. You’ll hear things like: It’ll take your mind off of things! We’ll do just like we used to! He/she would have wanted us to enjoy ourselves!
Let’s demystify the concept of a natural cemetery
The term natural cemetery is used to designate a burial site which has been turned into an actual green space. At Les Sentiers, our natural cemetery was created in a conscious effort to strike a careful balance between nature and our facilities for the utmost comfort of our visitors. It thus caters to the needs of bereaved families while ensuring an ecosystem-based management of the premises.
How gathering as a family in a cemetery can bring healing
Cemeteries are where families often come together to remember and keep the memory of a loved one alive. Throughout the history of mankind, mourning and burial rites have played a central role in our traditions. Visiting the deceased in cemeteries is also an important and long-standing ritual surrounding grief.
