Abstract
Grief is considered a normal process that accompanies losses such as the death of a loved one. However, it is possible that a grief can be complicated especially under certain special conditions. This article reviews three scenarios that have been experienced in Colombia (the Armero tragedy, disappearances associated with the internal conflict and deaths secondary to COVID 19 infection); these situations have in common the generation of risk factors so that the duels can be complex. From a descriptive and reflective look, common and particular risk factors are found; these findings also provide opportunities and recommendations for a possible intervention.
