Our conversation will explore animal companion loss: grief, mourning, bereavement, and the healing power of ritual.

• What is grief and disenfranchised grief? 
  
  
• Why is the loss of an animal companion so singularly devastating?
  
  
• What are the differences between grief, mourning, and bereavement and why is this significant?
  
  
• What is ritual and why is it so important?
  
  
• How can we create our own rituals?
