As a family we remember Grumpy Aka our husband, dad, grandad, great grandad he died today 3 years ago. For mum this would have been their 57th wedding anniversary and I say would have been but actually I should be saying 'IS'. Pull up a chair and lets talk care has been quiet but today I felt it was the ideal day to come back on and talk about grief and loss, reminding people that there is not right or wrong way to feel. That it is actually a crazy minefield of emotions that sometimes can be shocking but others can be glossed over because life and living needs to happen. However, you handle or don't handle is dependent on you and you support around you. What you must remember is it is okay not to be okay. It's okay to talk about your loss and share your grief and not to apologies for doing so. It's also ok to remind yourself how resilient you are and how strong you are. I'm reminding my mum how strong and amazing she is.
