A Snapshot of the Organization
On December 8, 2012, the Association hosted an event called "There is life after mourning!" The event was organized and held in Bucharest as a special “end of year” celebration for participants in the organization.
The Association hosted a small creative workshop to help those grieving the loss of a loved one during the holiday season, one of the most difficult times of the year for people suffering depression after the loss of a family member or friend. Their aim was not to, as the site says, “create masterpieces, but unique symbolic objects that describe our longing and help us feel closer to our loved one.” The meeting was open to anyone who wanted to learn how to get through the holidays easier after the loss of a loved one, within the limits of the places available. Participation was free with the option of a symbolic donation.
Library Events
On October 27, at the "Marin Preda" Library in Bucharest, an open meeting was held for anyone interested in finding out information about the "normal" manifestations of mourning and to ask an attending psychologist any questions they had questions about the available and appropriate support services available to them and their specific needs
The meeting addressed many topics specific to the grieving process and how to move on with life after the loss of someone important in their lives. The participants, both old friends or first meeting, had the opportunity to listen to specially-selected passages from the "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" work by Jonathan Safran Foer, which is about a 9-year-old boy who lost his father in the September 11, 2001 attacks.
