Church Avenue Chomp's Meredith Phillips: Online Grieving

Meredith Phillips of Church Avenue Chomp (Churchchomp.com) writes wonderfully about all sorts of things — food, motherhood,  the Ditmas Park neighborhood of Brooklyn, and lousy jobs. She also writes beautifully about loss. Meredith's sister Beth, a wife and mother, suffered from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or ALS, for more than three years before succumbing in November 2010. Meredith talks about what it has meant to have the support of her readers during this dark time -- and the one thing that every grieving person wants from comforting friends. (It's probably not what you think.)
