Learning to deal with death

It's sometimes said that death is a natural occurence, and that life goes on in spite of it.

But for many people the sudden death of a loved one can bring everyday life, to a virtual stand-still. Many need help to overcome their grief and don't even recognize it. Robert Webb was one of them.

Maria Hayes has his story.

I think this was a great story as I know the Webb family and how difficult it was in loosing their daughter. As Robb said it cost him his marriage as both did not know how to handle the pain that they were experiencing with the loss of their lovely daughter. It not only affected them but her friends who loved her also were affected and even to this day are suffering. We love you and it was so good of you to share your loss
