God saw her getting tired, a cure was not to be.
He wrapped her in his loving arms
And whispered ‘Come with me.’
She suffered much in silence, her spirit did not bend.
She faced her pain with courage, until the very end.
She tried so hard to stay with us
But her fight was not in vain,
God took her to His loving home
And freed her from the pain.

Grief is natural and normal and is the response to the experience of significant loss. There is no way of knowing how one will react in times of grief until faced with the journey of grief. Coping with grief is never easy and it is never a journey that we want to face, but most will experience some kind of loss in this journey we call life. Those who have loved deeply have the privilege of the journey of grief. For some the emotions of grief can fall upon them in rapid progression, anger, denial, loss, sadness, fear or numbness. Others journey slowly and feelings like of loneliness and sadness can last for longer periods. It is important to care for yourself or those you love who are experiencing grief in the best way possible. Swanborough Funerals have our own recommended grief specialist available to our clients either at our Office in Browns Plains or at Gary’s private practice.
