Guilt and Grief: Dealing With Feelings of Blame After a Loved One’s Death

Busted Halo Show w/Fr. Dave Dwyer

A listener named Phillip asks Father Dave a question about guilt while grieving the death of a loved one. He says, “My grandpa Oscar passed away a couple months ago. I administered chest compressions, and it did not help. I feel guilty. He was 92, but I really tried to save his life. My question is, if it's God's will, why do I feel guilty?”
