My name is Kathi Sullivan, and I am a Mom of three children.  My son Zack (36) and Logan (27) are living and my daughter Taylor passed away from underage drinking in 2008 at the age of 17.  Tay is what brings me to this world that I never thought I would know.  A world that I wasn’t able to choose, yet one that I am learning to live fully every day in for the last 16 years.   With the experiences of my losses, including my Mom passing three months after my daughter, also came rewards of learning that I am not alone in grief.   With those life experiences, I am now able to offer peer to peer support for grief and loss.  I am always available for a conversation or even a personal meeting if you are local to the North Attleboro area.

I offer services in a zoom group setting that I facilitate for Mom’s who have lost a child by any circumstance whether it is a pregnancy loss, stillborn, illnesses, substance use disorder, tragic events, suicide or accidents.  As Moms, we know the loss is the loss, it doesn’t matter how it came to be.  We meet every Tuesday night (EST) at 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm.  You will be welcomed with open arms from all of our Moms in our group.  If you feel you can’t sign in because you won’t be able to talk or share…don’t worry.  You can keep your video off if needed and just listen and get what you need from the group.  This grief journey is yours to learn how to navigate, so remember to give yourself grace when needed.  Even just signing in a step in learning how to keep moving forward.  You can find the link to the Tuesday night meeting on my website, http://www.sullivansmessage.com in the calendar at the bottom of the first page.

I also offer a support group via zoom every 3rd Sunday of the month, via zoom, from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm for parents who have lost a child due to a substance use cause.  I am affiliated with the group The Sun Will Rise for this meeting.  You can register at thesunwiserise.org to receive the link online to the meeting and also receive support through their incredible organization.

I also offer an IN PERSON MEETING every 1st Sunday of the month at my resource center, Sullivan’s Message, located at 218 Park Street, North Attleboro, MA from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm for parents who have lost a child by any circumstance.

Please feel free to call me at 508.369.2518 and I can share all the details of all the above.  Remember, that you do not need to be alone, support is a phone call away and you deserve that.  Your person you lost would want you to take the steps needed to keep moving forward.

On October 17, 2008, my world changed forever.    I know if you are reading this, you have your day as well.  We will be forever changed by the ones we love, but we can still live, love, laugh, cry and move forward together.  You do not have to do it alone.  I promise you that.
