Eileen Vorbach Collins shares about suicide loss, how a close friendship buoyed her during her hardest grief time, her up-close experience with hospice, and her strong feelings about long term grief being labeled a disorder. She tells us: “If we’re normalizing grief, we can’t call it a disorder.” Brava, Eileen. Brava.
Eileen Vorbach Collins writes true stories she wishes were fiction and fairy tales she wishes were true. She's grateful that her work has been published in many wonderful places. She is the author of the award-winning essay collection, Love in the Archives, a Patchwork of True Stories About Suicide Loss. https://www.loveinthearchives.com
