give those with walkers or wheelchairs an<br />
opportunity to attend before the Festival is<br />
too busy and crowded.
Love Lives On<br />
by Amy L. Kitsembel, M.Ed., Bereavement Coordinator<br />
When the holidays come, often times it sharpens<br />
our focus on loved ones who have died and we may<br />
struggle with “celebrating” without them. It is often<br />
stated that the anticipation of the event is often<br />
harder than the actual event.<br />
There are two powerful statements that apply to grief<br />
as we anticipate the holiday season.<br />
The only way to the other side of grief is to go<br />
through it, (not around or under, but through<br />
it). What exactly does that mean? Feel your loss.<br />
Denying our emotions and repressing feelings<br />
does not help us move forward in our healing. Let<br />
your emotions around the loss be felt. Tell stories.<br />
Remember. Laugh. Cry. Celebrate. Mourn. Sing.<br />
Death ends a life not a relationship. Although you<br />
miss your loved one, their memory and connection<br />
to you is as permanent as their love. Some folks still<br />
talk to their loved ones, some buy gifts for a cause<br />
their loved one enjoyed or supported, yet others may<br />
share quiet time together with family and remember<br />
their loved one’s ‘role’ during a family celebration.<br />
Maybe they always<br />
made the best cookies,<br />
or they cut down the<br />
holiday tree, or maybe<br />
they were the family<br />
scrooge. Perhaps there are<br />
Amy L. Kitsembel, M.Ed.,<br />
“family” jokes they would<br />
Bereavement Coordinator<br />
re-tell, or maybe they created<br />
the magic by putting up the<br />
lights, or making sure each person got something<br />
special. These memories are part of our relationship,<br />
and a treasure to our hearts just as our loved one<br />
was. We may redefine their roles during the holiday,<br />
and perhaps their gift to us now is in re-telling their<br />
life story and what it means to us.<br />
Being purposeful to remember and acknowledge our<br />
profound feelings around loss - the remembering all<br />
those little things that make our loved one special to<br />
us - is how and why love lives on.<br />
“Love is stronger than death even though it can’t<br />
stop death from happening, but no matter how hard<br />
death tries it can’t separate people from love. It can’t<br />
take away our memories either. In the end, life is<br />
stronger than death.”- Anonymous<br />

<strong>Holiday</strong> Keepsake<br />
The holidays are a special time to celebrate<br />
the lives of people we love—people who<br />
are living and those who have died.<br />
You are invited to celebrate<br />
the loved ones in your life by<br />
participating in the Tree of Love<br />
tribute program. You may purchase<br />
and personalize a two-inch polished<br />
brass holiday ornament that will be<br />
displayed on the <strong>Aspirus</strong> Comfort Care<br />
and Hospice Services holiday tree in the<br />
lobby of <strong>Aspirus</strong> Wausau Hospital beginning<br />
in November. Your ornament will be mailed to you the<br />
second week of December.<br />
The Tree of Love tribute program is a service<br />
of the bereavement program and is not a<br />
fundraising activity. For more information<br />
contact Amy Kitsembel, Bereavement<br />
Coordinator at 715-847-2703.<br />
Heartwarming memories of those we<br />
hold dear are gifts to cherish each day<br />
of the year… the Tree of Love holiday<br />
tradition is sponsored by <strong>Aspirus</strong> Comfort<br />
