Grief Topics for Interviews
Widowed person, grief, and a cat
Felber, a widow, adopts Sterling, a throw-away cat. He shows her how to
live and love again, through his sixty stories in A Cat’s Eye View
of Life and Love by Sterling With Gentle Self-Help for All Ages. Felber
shares from her journey with Sterling.
Abraham Lincoln and cats.
Abraham Lincoln was born on February 12th two hundred years ago. He loved
cats and had a total of four while he lived in the White House. He would
stroke the cats for long periods. We would like to think this helped relieve
the stress in his life. Marta Felber, co-author of A Cat’s Eye View
of Life and Love by Sterling, also has her birthday on February 12th. Hear
how Sterling became and remains a guiding influence in her life.
Top Ten Things to Say, and Not to Say to Me When I
Have Lost a Loved One.
Felber gives quotes to illustrate each of the ten things, both
pro and con.
Everyone handles grief differently.
Felber shares how young children, teens, men, and women each deal
with their special grief.
How do you cope with the death of your spouse?
There is one day you will always remember-the day your spouse died.
Your hurt is real and grief has no schedule. The important thing is to keep
moving in the days, months, and even years following. Felber shares concrete
actions. “Take control of your grief, as soon as you are able,”
she recommends, and tells how to do this.
Give of yourself to those who grieve.
Felber discusses five different ways, with specific and practical
examples of each.
