The loss of a spouse is an individual episode and the circumstances leading up to the loss is different in every situation. The surviving spouse has many issues that need to be dealt with and a time factor will not be the same in every situation. Everyone deals with it differently and needs time to move through the phases like stages of grief and loss.Aug 21st, 2013Someone from Long Beach, CA signed.

I am in support of Melinda's petition. There seems to be a lack of understanding on the impact of grief and the implications associated with working through the grieving process. Please consider her petition to amend the current FMLA policy. Thank you. Angela Abramo, MSW (and widow)REPORT COMMENTS
