This year, millions of families nationwide will face the loss of a dearly-loved animal companion. They’ll need advice, support and comfort when dealing with their grief AND surprising emotions. They’ll want you to interview grief recovery specialist Dr. Diane Pomerance, author of PET PARENTHOOD, ANIMAL ELDERS, WHEN YOUR PET DIES and other books.

Dr. Pomerance will discuss on-air:

• The unconditional love, loyalty and company pets offer. Naturally we experience a major void when the pet is gone.

• Why, as in the case of losing a human loved one, there is no set time period for mourning.

• Unique ways to celebrate a beloved pet’s life, from scrapbooks, journals and songs to special burials and memorials.

• How to respond to insensitive comments like “But it was only an animal!” from people who don’t understand the powerful people/pet bond.

• Whether it’s wise to adopt a new pet right away.

Dr. Pomerance will also explore the 7 powerful life lessons animals teach us about generosity, friendship and resilience — and how to keep those qualities in your family, long after your pet’s life is over.
