The definitive, eccentric journal of an unlikely caregiver, continued.
Apologia for these journals:
They are not about taking care of a relative with moderate to severe Alzheimer's/senile dementia.
For an explanation of what these journals are about, click the link above.
For internet sources that are about caring for relatives with moderate to severe
Alzheimer's/senile dementia, click through the Honorable Alzheimer's Blogs in my
links section to the right.

Bereavement Definitions
Much of the following material can be easily accessed on the web, but I'm so fascinated with the terminology of bereavement that I've decided to post them, here. Clear explanations are available at the About.com links listed in this post. However, I found clear explanations that I prefer at an alternate site, as well. I'll attach the appropriate links to the words.
- Grief: Reaction to a loss.
- Mourning: Process of adapting to a loss, distinguished by action (either internal or external) and often influenced by societal and cultural dictates.
- Bereavement: The state of having experienced a loss, which includes the loss event, grief and mourning.
