The holidays can be a painful time for many who are grieving the loss of a loved one. There are oftentimes traditions or events that a person would be involved in that they are no longer around for, and that changes the dynamic of the whole celebration. Maybe they always read a certain story, baked a certain dish, or were integral to the holiday. Or even if it was just their presence that is missed, the first holiday following a death will be different than normal.
Learn more about changing traditions after a death on this week's episode of "Changing Lives".
