The life transition of death and dying is inevitably one with which we will all be faced; we will all experience the death of people we hold close throughout our lifetime. This paper will explore the different processes of grief including the bereavement, mourning, and sorrow individuals go through after losing someone to death. Bereavement is a period of adaptation following a life changing loss. This period encompasses mourning, which includes behaviors and rituals following a death, and the wide range of emotions that go with it. Sorrow is the state of ongoing sadness not overcome in the grieving process; though not pathological, persistent

The Joe family was introduced to counseling prior to the death of Mama Joe whose death resulted in conflict within the family. Prior to the death of Mama Joe, there were a rise in emotional stressors in the family such as financial stability, Family conflict, and coping skills. The initial problem presented in this family is the death of Mama Joe and individual conflicts within the family. Many of the problems seen in this family can be traced back to the death of Mama Joe, without her acting as the families functioning unit, there is a shift in the Joe family dynamic. Terri expresses financial strain from maintaining the family’s bills, there is also a noticeable conflict between Maxine and Terri, as well as infidelity between Cousin faith and Terri’s husband. After doing an initial assessment the best treatment in this family is first helping the family cope with the death of Big Mama. The impact of death within the family system is something that is not discussed, and inadequate attention has been given on the long-term effects of death within the surviving members. Froma Walsh assists professionals in understanding the complex issues that arises when families are faced with death in her book Living beyond Loss: Death in the family. Walsh breaks down family adaption into 4 major tasks which she uses to help strengthen the functioning unit. One task that can help the joe family is what Walsh describes as Shared acknowledgement of the reality of death This task states that, “Every family member must confront the reality of a death in the family. Acknowledgment of the loss is facilitated by clear information and open communication about the facts and circumstances of the death. Inability to accept the reality of death can lead family members to avoid contact with the rest of the family or to become angry with others who are moving forward in the grief process. Long-standing sibling conflicts and cutoffs can Often be traced back to the bedside of a dying parent or to the graveside.”{pg. 28} This accurately depicts the Joe family whose family dynamic shifted after the death of Mama Joe. Because of this shift the family lacked the ability to cope, which lead to isolation amongst family members, sibling

Charles Smith executed a Last Will and Testament on January 01, 2000. The last Will and Testament was filed with the local probate court. Smith died on June 20, 2015. His Last Will and Testament appointed Ralph Jones as Personal Representative and appointed Henry Robinson as Successor Personal Representative. Robinson would like to have Jones removed from Personal Representative for the Estate of Charles Smith due to the lack of fulfilling his Personal Representative duties. Jones has failed to publish notice in the local newspaper that Smith died on June 20, 2015 and he is now the Personal Representative. Since Jones did not publish notice, creditors or possible creditors are unaware and were unable to make a claim against the Estate. Jones failed to post bond which is required by the court to serve as a Personal Representative of the Estate. In addition, Jones has not taken the necessary

I contacted Matthew via telephone, Matthew stated that he did not answer Blaire's calls due to the decree issued by the judge requesting they only have contact via text message or Email in order to have any and all conversations documented (Blaire corroborated this statement). Matthew then stated he "messed up the address and the correct address was 2088 Club Crest Way Henderson, NV 89014. Matthew then stated that he did not intentionally provide a false address and messed up, Matthew stated that he even messed up on his leave paperwork. Matthew emailed me a copy of his leave paperwork and it had 3838 Club Crest listed as the address. Matthew stated that he did not mean to mess up the address so bad and was extremely cooperative. I instructed Matthew to advise me when he arrived at the correct address and I would have the Henderson Police Department dispatch a unit to the address to verify he is there and that Nolen is in no danger, to which he agreed. I provided Matthew with the case number as well.

On December 1986, Nora Priscilla Lindsay made a Will with the Public Trustee which was then later revoked. Nora Lindsay was divorced, had two children, a son Geoffrey Lindsay, who is the appellant, and a daughter Heath McGrath, who is the respondent, and died on 16 October 2012. The appellant believed the deceased died without a Will and therefore applied for the Letters of Administration. This was then granted on 17 June 2013. However, a five-page hand-written document was then located. Following this, the appellant brought before the primary judge that the document was the subject of the application for probate. This however was dismissed by the primary Judge on 4 September 2014 as it did not meet the requirements set out in the Succession

On December 28, 2015, I attended the funeral for Dean Williamson, a long-time machinist at Dell Rapids East. During the service, the minister mentioned that Dean always carried a brass coin he received from L.G. Everist, Inc. (The coin is actually a token that we all carry as our commitment to each other’s safety.)

Experience 1: Reading the entire grief workbook helped me to understand how to conduct a bereavement phone call. I learned what is helpful to say to a person in a time of need, and what is going to make matters worse. I really took in that I need to remember the entire conversation and once it is my turn to speak I should address everything that was mentioned. In that why I can get a sense if there is anything I can do to help. The activity at the back of the book was meaningful to me because I got to put myself in the shoes of the people at the other end of the phone call. I need to know what they are going through but I know not to say that. A simple phone can really go a long way.

The man was hungry. After sending his message, he warmed up a microwave meal, and returned to the living room, with that and a Pepsi. After rape, torture and murder, sugary soda's were his main vice, and he usually didn't drink alcohol. Not alone anyway, he'd been to known to consume a few beers on those rare occasions he socialised with his peers, and the odd glass of wine when he dined with his parents.

Have you ever thought about how you would feel after aging? Trying to find answers in regards to what happens when you are aging mentally and physically I decided to interview my grandmother who is 70 years old. She was born in Guyana which is a third world country located in South America. She was the first born out of 5 children. Although it is the only English speaking country in South America, we classify ourselves as West Indians from the Caribbean. She does not have much of an education since she dropped out of school after her mother died during childbirth when she was only 12 years old. She had to stop going to school so that she can take care of her siblings which included the newborn baby that her mom just had while her father went to work to bring in income. After her mother died her father remarried and have 4 more children and his second wife also died from complications at the birth of her last child. She got married at the age of 16 since her father could not afford to take care of all his children on his own.

It is important that all documentation such as spelling of the names, addresses of the parents, and full names of the parent are correct the final submitted document. It is a costly mistake for the parents to have to change this information later after submission. This is where HIPAA polices come into effect and help healthcare personal to maintain administrative, physical and technical safeguards in protect confidentiality and prevent unauthorized access to health information. It was interesting to learn that any if a mother is not married, and the father is not present when signing the application for a birth certificate that he must pay to add his name after the birth certificate has been filed with the NC Birth Certificate Registry. Ms. Boyd has 4 days to submit Birth and Death Certificates to the Edgecombe County Health Department
