#053. We've all done it haven't we? Lost, damaged or deleted important photos and videos with absolutely no way of retrieving them. There's that sinking feeling followed by a knot in your stomach as you realise what just happened. 

Loss #35 of 101 - Loss of photos

This is The Silent Why, a podcast on a mission to open up conversations around loss and grief and to see if hope can be found in 101 different types of loss.

This week, we (your hosts, Chris & Claire Sandys) are back to share a personal loss we went through last year. 

Damage to our back-up hard drive ended up with us losing thousands of photos from a four year period, including holidays of a lifetime, our 40th birthdays, a 100th birthday, special memories and many zoo animals.

As it's very important to us that ALL losses are covered in our 101 losses (not just bereavements), this week is an example of how the pain of grief can occur even in situations we might be likely to try and dismiss as a 'lesser loss' that we should just 'get over'. Yet all losses affect us and need processing, on any level.

Join us as we tell the story of what happened, how we've come to terms with it (if we have!) and why it's important to share these kinds of losses too.
