The COVID-19 pandemic has crystallized our collective trauma. People had to learn how to grieve as a globe, as a continent, as a country, as a city. Most importantly, they learned to grieve as a family: joining with the many Americans who mourned more than 600,000 lost loved ones. Reflections from a sympathetic and learned panel will guide us in converting our loss and pain into emotional healing and energy. We'll learn to draw strength from losses and emerge into a new year and beyond with clarity and vision, compassion and purpose.
