The devastating fact of grief is the permanency of it. It’s not a task to be completed and ticked off the to do list. You don’t just lose that person when they die, but for the rest of your life, in all those big and small moments. This is a conversation in bereavement that needs to be normalised, so that those outside of the grief club can understand that loss is for a life time. Our people are our people, forever. Grieve whatever way feels right for you, never let anyone tell you that you need to ‘get over it’ or ‘move on’ from your loss. You can only ever move forward with the memory and deep love which you continue to share with your loved one.
