to share stories and pictures much like they would during wakes and funerals . Share them during group conference calls and / or via social media , emails or other modern modes of communications . Connecting in such ways can ensure no one is forced to grieve alone .
• Seek support from your community . The CDC recommends seeking support from faith-based organizations or other trusted community leaders and friends . While inperson church services may not be available , many local religious leaders have made themselves available to congregants and even non-congregants who may need help grieving . Local community organizations may have grief counselors available to help people cope with loss .
• Take part in an activity that meant something to you and your deceased loved one . The CDC notes that doing something in memory of a loved one can help people cope . For example , plant flowers in honor of a deceased parent with whom you shared a love of gardening .
Confronting the loss of a loved one during the COVID-19 outbreak can be challenging . But families can still overcome this challenge even if they cannot gather together in person .
