Emily is my first daughter without a dad to share on the podcast. The podcast is being released on the fifth anniversary of her father's death. She created her Instagram account, @theinvisiblewounds, 2 years into her grief journey. It was her outlet and continues to provide her, and others, with support and encouragement, as there are times when people in real life still struggle to understand her grief.
Emily's Take-Away: To those who are surrounding grievers, if you are not sure what to do, ask! There is no guidebook or right thing to do. Support is dependent on each individual griever. For the griever, it's hard to ask, or even know what you need. Simply show up in whatever way you can to offer support.
All of our stories are important! If you have a story to share, please send an email to daughterswithoutmoms@gmail.com. You don't have to be a DWOM to share your story. All are welcome!
