You will also hear a personal story of caregiver grief and recovery from a former caregiver. Having navigated the loss of both parents, she will share what grief recovery looks and sounds like in practice, offering a glimpse into how one can find renewed meaning after a season of profound loss.

Please note: This session is strictly informative and intended to provide education and support. It is not a substitute for professional clinical counselling.

Caregiving is often marked by frustration, exhaustion, and duty—but beneath the daily grind lies a quieter reality: grief.

Grief does not begin only with death. For many caregivers, it starts when a loved one is no longer the same physically or mentally, despite still being present. This “ambiguous loss” can bring feelings of confusion, resentment, sadness, and isolation, intensifying caregiver stress.

Join us for an informative session exploring the many dimensions of caregiver grief and practical ways to cope. You will also hear a personal story of grief and recovery from a former caregiver who, after losing both parents, found renewed meaning following profound loss.
