The authors wished to establish an organized approach for helping parents of patients who had died. Over a 14-month period, 81 people participated in a series of groups. A closed-group, eight-meeting format was used, under professional leadership. Main topics covered in discussion were: problems and feelings associated with the death of the child; problems of coping with everyday life; and philosophical issues. Conclusions emphasize the need for professional leadership and screening of potential members. The groups were found to be an effective way to help normal people with normal grief. Participants saw their experience as extremely valuable, and as something which could not be gained through conventional therapy.
