The internet can be the source of many articles that can provide comfort, help, information, support and even inspiration.  Surfing the internet is something you can do at any time of the day or night, when you may find yourself alone.  Just try typing "grief" into your search engine and you will find you are no longer alone. 

Below are some websites others have found helpful.  Each website will usually have its own "Links" page so you may be surprised how quickly the time will pass.  Please let us know if you find any websites you think could be added to our list or if any of these links have become out of date.
