But recognizing grief in animals—and knowing how to help—isn't always straightforward. In this episode of Everyone Dies , we break down: The Behavioral Signs: How grief shows up in dogs and cats through changes in appetite, sleep, vocalizations, search habits, and affection (why some pets turn clingy while others withdraw). The "Grief vs. Illness" Red Flag: Why hiding, lethargy, and skipped meals can signal a medical emergency rather than just grief, and exact thresholds for when to call your vet. Emotional Contagion: How a surviving pet absorbs human distress, and why stabilizing your own routine directly helps your animal heal. Navigating Primary Caregiver Loss: Key documentation strategies (feeding schedules, medication, triggers, and quirks) to ensure a smooth transition if a pet must move to a new home or caregiver. Grief impacts every living creature in the home. Tune in to learn how to read your pet's subtle cues, keep their world predictable, and support them through the loss. #PetGrief #GrievingPets #DogGrief #CatGrief #PetLoss #PetBereavement Support the show Listen to more episodes: https://www.every1dies.org - also get notes, links and expanded resources Follow Us: Facebook | Instagram | YouTube Email: mail@every1dies.org

  Life After Lymphoma: R-CHOP, Remission and Survivorship

  Sep 18, 202640 minS7

  Send us Fan Mail A diagnosis of cancer changes how people think about their health, their future, and their everyday lives. For people diagnosed with blood cancers such as Waldenström macroglobulinemia or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) , the path from diagnosis through treatment and remission can bring both relief and ongoing uncertainty. In this episode of the Everyone Dies podcast , we talk with Karen Wolfe, a nurse practitioner about what it means to live after a lymphoma diagnosis, including the experience of receiving treatment with R-CHOP chemotherapy and transitioning into remission. For many cancer survivors, completing treatment does not mean leaving cancer completely behind. Follow-up appointments, scans, changes in the body, and concerns about recurrence can become part of a new reality. Many survivors describe learning how to balance gratitude for remission with the uncertainty of not knowing what the future holds. Learn the emotional impact of living with a cancer history, why uncertainty is a common experience after treatment, and strategies survivors use to regain their health, confidence and focus on what matters most. https://bit.ly/4rlUXvc This episode explores: What Waldenström macroglobulinemia and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma are How treatments such as R-CHOP are used for aggressive lymphomas Why remission can bring both relief and new concerns The emotional adjustment after cancer treatment ends Living with follow-up care and the possibility of recurrence Cancer changes the story, but it does not have to define the whole story.
