Popis: | The purpose of this paper is to explore how bonds with the deceased are maintained with special attention given to the relationship between the bereaved and others. First, we show that a bereaved parent who participates in a ‘Parents group in B hospital’ sustains the memory of the child by keeping a relation with other members. Next, we show that members of the group jointly maintain the bonds of parents with their deceased child although talking about the departed is constrained by the aims of the group. |
