As I walked into the Survivor's Symposium I attended a few weeks ago, a Girl Scout volunteer handed me a gauze bag. Inside, I found a beautiful hand-painted Heart of Hope from by my favorite grief support organization, Interregnum, Inc. The heart is beautiful, as I am sure you will agree. But, it was the message that accompanied it that melted my heart.
Michael in the "sekond grade" wrote me a little letter of love and encouragement.
Michael's "favirote sport team is Giants," and "favirote food is french frise." He closed strong, "Believe in yourself! Follow your dreams! Think positive!"
In the bag, I also found the following: Your heart was painted by an elementary school student from Verona, NJ. The children were inspired to participate in this program by their art teacher, Mrs. J, who is a breast cancer survivor. She received a "Heart of Hope" during her treatment at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, NJ, and is now actively serving as a volunteer in an effort to help others.

Mayor Cory Booker and Interregnum's executive director Judith Pedersen were the featured speakers at the Morris County Chamber of Commerce monthly breakfast meeting today in Florham Park, NJ. An excerpt from Judith's speech follows:
"Since 2005, we have served families and individuals who experience life-altering challenges such as death of a loved one, life limiting illness, separation of any kind, and bereavement. Our service is available to all - regardless of type of loss and regardless of ability to pay.
We do this through counseling, education and community service. Since our inception, we have guided hundreds of individuals and families through their journeys through loss, we have educated thousands of professionals such as nurses and social workers who work with patients and clients experiencing loss, and, lastly, tens of thousands have been touched through our Hearts of Hope community service program.
It has been a continuing privilege to work with this underserved population as we strive to reach more and more with our sincere mission to help grievers find life after loss. We have a very small staff and a very large group of volunteers who are all deeply committed to making this mission a reality so that each and every person who experiences loss receives our strong, clear message that during times of life altering loss and sadness, you are not alone." |
