I started my first session of grief counseling yesterday with Aylette at the Partners In Homecare facility here in Missoula. 

It's so important to get help for grief and so many people don't talk to someone about the pain and trauma that sometimes follows. Grief Is all around us from the loss of a loved one, pet, friend to a boyfriend or girlfriend. It was difficult, I cried for about 30 minutes before I went because I was scared, I didn't want to be vulnerable to someone I didn't know or open up about the stuff I was keeping inside. Sometimes it's hard to make your body follow suit to what your mind already knows is right. I am here to say that even as someone who wouldn't normally seek outside help it's beneficial and enlightening. I have a big platform at my disposal and I would like to help others who are dealing with the same thing. Just because we feel lost or stumble does not mean we are lost forever. Sometimes the brightest light guiding you through traumatic experiences is someone you don't even know.
