“…Generally clinicians focus on the presenting grief narrative or traumatic experience that prompts an individual/couple/family to seek counseling. However, Koenig and Weaver (1997) concede that today's busy therapists are "less likely to probe earlier life conflict" (p. 93) particularly if insurance reimbursement, financial resources or the commitment to pursuing counseling are limited.

Many terms could answer the question, “Who was Abraham Lincoln?” Husband, father, president, emancipator and martyr are appellations attached to the sixteen president. Rarely, however, is griever mentioned and rarely have Lincoln's accumulated losses been examined through a thanatological lens. After early losses of mother, sister, and fiancée, Lincoln came to be described as “a man of sorrows.” The author explores an historical perspective of the impact of Lincoln's multiple losses, and offers a counseling tool—a grief grid--to inventory Lincoln's grief experiences. At a glance, the grid provides a clinician or grief educator insight to the potential impacts of Lincoln's multiple losses. Clinicians can adapt the grief grid for use with clients who have experienced multiple losses to prompt therapeutic reflection as well as for teaching and presentations. Indeed, Lincoln was well “acquainted with grief.
