​Your spouse or life partner has passed. The worst moment of your life is unfolding around you. You clasp to anything to remember them and keep them close. So, when is the right time to take off your wedding ring? Or do you even have to take it off?

​Resilience is defined by the strength and speed of our response to adversity. It is not about avoiding challenges or difficult situations, but rather about facing them, learning from them, and continuing to move forward. It sure sounds good or like wishful thinking when you are in the depths of grief and mourning doesn’t it?
