Bereavement
"As we grow older the death of a loved one is something that we all have to face. Many of us have already coped with the death of parents, brothers or sister, and sometimes the death of a child or grandchild. There may also be other problems for the elderly when bereaved. They may be struggling to cope with mobility and health problems, living on their own, living some distance from their family or indeed not having any family. All these factors add to the stress of coping with the death of a partner."
