Grieving a Chronic Illness & Injury
An open letter to health professionals everywhere
I have spent a lot of time with clients helping them put words to their experience of grief. And now, as someone who is living with yet another health challenge, I have been confronted by the lack of understanding, or even desire to hear me during consultation with medical and health professionals.
In creating this open letter to all health professionals everywhere, it is my hope that people living with chronic injuries and illnesses will be empowered to put words to their experience in a helpful way.
And it is my hope that health professionals will hear what is being said, how it is being said and acknowledge that before we can “move on” there is a process of acceptance.
Once downloaded, you will be invited to receive a 5 part mini-training to help you think about how you can put this information into action. There is a training specifically for health professionals and one for people living with chronic illnesses and injuries.
