We are growing through all that we are going through.

Even though it’s not what we wanted, not how we planned for it to be. I think it’s safe to say, us bereaved young people are made of strong stuff. We keep pushing on no matter what.

We also stop in the midst of our grief to feel - we are self-aware and mindful of how tough it really is. Never underestimate what you have been through and are continuing to live through. Proud would be an understatement, take time to acknowledge all that has happened - no matter how long it’s been.

Look after yourself and live in your proudly grief. Remember, grief is just love with no place to go.
