When families lose a loved one, they all grieve, each in their own way and in their own time. Grief is a natural reaction to loss. This is a process, which can happen gradually. In general, there are three phrases to the grieving process.
1. Shock and denial
2. Confusion and despair
3. Acceptance (eventually)
