The expert states that the pain of bereavement is an unpleasant emotional and sensitive experience associated with, or similar to that associated with, a significant, actual or potential emotional loss.
Presenter Fernanda Lima lost her mother earlier this year to pancreatic cancer. On his social networks, the artist lamented his departure. He paid his respects through a photograph. “You will truly know what love is only when you are asked and you will not think of a definition, but of a name: Teca! My mother! My inspiration for life, art, generosity, dedication, irony and grace! My safety net, my biggest smile! They were difficult days, very difficult, but there was so much love that I calmed down,” she wrote.
According to Dr. Ana Claudia Quintana Arantes (CRM-SP 76.851), a geriatrics specialist with advanced training in palliative care and a graduate in psychology – pain interventions, human nature will carry the experience of loss throughout one’s life. Going through the pain of grief on this journey is part of the journey when we choose to love someone. He also explains that losing, getting lost, being the lost person are the possible faces of these absences that we will experience throughout life. “I’m not just referring to the loss of a person you love very much, because pain also happens in situations in our lives, such as moving to another city, changing jobs, the death of a pet, the breakup of a romantic relationship. All All these problems create suffering for those who live”, he underlines.
The specialist states that the pain of potential grief occurs during the period of anticipated mourning, a period that begins with the news of the announced death (when the person has a serious and progressive illness and will have a high probability of dying from this illness).

According to Ana Claudia, the grieving process does not have a set time. Each person feels differently, as pain doesn’t fit into labels, expectations, or manuals. The pain has no end, but the pain that needs to be exposed can end, or at least give a huge relief. This process of going through the pain of grief requires patience, compassion, and a lot of dedication to self-knowledge.
The doctor reiterates that when talking about loss it can be difficult to find someone who has the courage to listen. After all, all our education is aimed at the theme of gain, acquisition, conquest. You never learn to lose. According to the specialist, even if finding your way back in a scenario of pain and nostalgia is complex, it is not impossible to overcome.
Ana Claudia emphasizes that life, time and memories will give space for the deceased person to live in your heart, re-establishing the emotional connection. The doctor underlines that this means letting the bonds of love remain, despite the physical absence, honoring that person’s legacy, knowing how to recover memories of love and dedicating oneself with kindness to rebuilding the joy, which is not lost, there just wait until later.
