<p>&ldquo;Oh it&#39;s a jolly holiday with you &hellip;.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Holidays, steeped in family traditions, are not always jolly when you are also experiencing a loss of a loved one through death or divorce, a job loss or any number of loss scenarios. Accepting what is does not negate the difficulties in finding a &ldquo;new normal&rdquo; for family traditions, whether it is in the food we eat, the locations, or the very real <em>hole</em> that is left in the fabric of what has always been a celebration.</p>

<p>Author, Jody Neufeld, brings her years with hundreds of hospice families as well as her own loss experience to share practical ways to take steps through a time of the year that is filled with emotions and expectations. Find a holiday time you can live!</p>
