The Mary Mac Show | When You Couldn’t Say Goodbye

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

This week, on my podcast, we discuss what we go through when we couldn’t say goodbye to someone we loved.

Whether it’s Covid and we weren’t allowed in a hospital or healthcare setting, or earthquakes, avalanches, tornadoes, floods, fires, hurricanes, tsunami, cyclones, explosions, car or plane crashes, all these prevent us to say goodbye if we were not present at these scenes.

There were also sudden death like heart attacks, strokes, homicide, suicide, even terrorism.

And we must remember all the military deaths, especially their bodies were so mutilated or affected by an explosion and there were only small parts or nothing to bury. Many of our men and women, who sacrificed their life for your freedom, never came home at all.

Join me in listening in to Episode 39 to take a look at how to deal with our grief when we couldn’t be with them when they died.

Additional Notes:

The Mary Mac Show | The Gift of Love

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

This week, on my podcast, we speak about the gift of love – both giving and receiving.

After the death of a loved one, we spend a great deal of time loving others who are bereft and trying to make their world more whole even though it might be crumbling around them.

But what we tend to do is neglect ourselves.

We don’t give ourselves the love we need.

We are so busy “doing” that we forget to just “be” for our own good.

Join me in listening in to Episode 38 to take a look at the gift of love.

The Mary Mac Show | The Gift of Intolerance

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

This week, on my podcast, we speak about the gift of intolerance.

Now this title might make you tilt your head, but being selfish and intolerant when you are in such pain is a necessary gift to yourself.

During our younger years, we are usually trained to be tolerant of many things.

The way people treat us, the things they say which hurt us, the invitations we don’t want to accept. We got the impression we weren’t able to say no.

But there comes a time during our grieving process when we realize that if we want to heal, we have to leave everyone else’s desires on the back burner.

We need to create a new life where WE decide what is right for us, not others.

Listen in to Episode 37 for some perspective.

The Mary Mac Show | The Gift of Trust

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

This week, on my podcast, we speak about the gift of trust.

Trusting ourselves, trusting our timing, trusting that we know what we need while we are grieving.

So many people mean well and try to make us grieve in the same way they do.

But that doesn’t always work for us.

The Mary Mac Show | Helping Children Understand Pet Loss

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

This week we continue speaking about Pet Loss but from a child’s perspective.

For many children, the first death they deal with is the loss of a goldfish, a turtle, or a dog or cat.

They aren’t mature enough to put words to their feelings, so we need to help them learn that what they are feeling is perfectly natural and normal. That adults grieve also after a pet’s loss and they are not alone.

In this week’s episode, we discuss the different emotions they feel, how to best speak with them, what language will not serve but confused them and how to celebrate the life of your pet.

I’ve created a specific Pet Loss page on my website where you can find the best people to give advice, if you need it, to make this experience better for your children. Some organizations, like Veterinarian Medical Schools, have hotlines staffed by those studying to become Veterinarians.

You can also go to my Crisis Resource tab on this website, where you can call suicide hotlines staffed by ready and waiting trained counselors all over the world, who are willing to listen to all your own personal pain, after a pet’s or your favorite person’s death and give you advice on helping your little ones, too. USE THEM!! And don’t you ever feel that your loss is trivial.

There is no need to harbor your pain when you can speak with someone who understands it.

You can order your Bach’s Rescue Remedy by clicking on the link below and then tab at the top of their page for Rescue Remedy Products. Remember, these do have alcohol in them.

I use the Rescue Remedy 20ml drops but they have spray and other versions which might work better for you. And…they also have products to calm pets, too.
