local support groups and gatherings
Join a local support group.
The Mothers of Angels Society was started in March 2004 as a way for mothers in
the community to cope with the loss of their child or children. As a non-profit
society, the Mothers of Angels society is thankful for the kind support of so
many who have contributed to our library, memory garden and special projects.
Mothers meet to learn more about grief, to lend support to those new to this
grief experience and to learn how to enjoy life. Everyone in the support group
has traveled along the road to recovery from the devastating loss of a child.
Many times words are not needed to show support for these mothers because,
within the group, there is an unspoken understanding of the many grief stages we
must travel.
