Pleas help me
While they each faced separate hurdles on their road to recovery, one hurdle they shouldn't have had to deal with what the withdrawal or absence of support and validation from the people and institutions around them. What does this sentence mean? Can anyone simplify it?
________________________________________________
When we are grieving, we need empathy, we need compassion, we need hugs. Grief researchers have long acknowledged that heart break is a form of grief. Our Communities, our societies, and many of the people in them do not. Until they are the ones who are heartbroken.
What does "Our Communities, our societies, and many of the people in them do not. Until they are the ones who are heartbroken." mean? Please put the sentences into a more clearer form.
Thanks in advance.

Answer

To understand these sentences, you need to refer back to the second sentence.  The key phrase in the second sentence is 'acknowledged that heartbreak is a form of grief'.  The next two sentences contain ellipses (words missed out) which refer back to this key phrase. This is how the third and fourth sentences would read if they didn't have the missing words:

Grief researchers have long acknowledged that heartbreak is a form of grief.

Our Communities, our societies, and many of the people in them do not [acknowledge that heartbreak is a form of grief. ]

[They won't acknowledge that heart break is a form of grief] until they are the ones who are heartbroken.

I hope that makes sense now.
