​"This Grief Intensity Scale assesses common thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of people who have lost someone important to them. The scale is meant to capture the grieving respondent’s intensity of his or her reaction to the loss. This diagnostic tool helps assess a person’s risk of developing prolonged grief disorder (PGD) following the death of a loved one. There are particular symptoms that must be elevated at 6 months in order to meet criteria for PGD. If a respondent meets criteria, he or she should seek out more thorough evaluation from a mental health professional. We have this scale available in a variety of languages."

"A Brief, 6-Item Scale for Caregiver Grief in Dementia Caregiving. Abstract: Purpose - Caregivers of persons with dementia (PWD) can experience loss and grief long before the death of the person. Although such experience of caregiver grief is measurable, available scales (such as the Marwit–Meuser Caregiver Grief Inventory, MM-CGI) are lengthy and have overlaps with other caregiving constructs. We developed a briefer scale that captures the essence of caregiver grief—with comparable psychometric properties and total score to MM-CGI, as well as less overlap with other caregiving constructs."​

"Honoring a Loved One ||

Processing Grief Through

Art Journaling

September 27 marked the 3 year anniversary

of the passing of my grandmother,

whom we all called Mémé.

Her passing was rather sudden and very unexpected.

She was my rock, support, sanctuary.

As the anniversary date approached,

I took some time to surround myself with her memory, and process my love and grief

through art journaling"
