well said! Im a bereaved parent. Its been 21 years- grief still lives with me though I channel it in creativity -art, writing,teaching and mindfulness. If you read my posts-you will see excerpts from my daughters and our complicated and life affirming story. I will keep on reading your posts! You are helping a lot of people, I imagine. I hope to do the same for caretakers.❤️

Namaste and Many thanks Susan for your kind words

One bereaved parent to another ... our pains know each others' ,

although no one can ever understand fully another's grief.

Look forward to learning from your posts and story of grief & growth.

Please share forward my blog with others and join me in spreading the message of #GriefWisdom & #GriefAndGrowth.

Gratitude & love

I shared your post today with a friend who lost both her parents within the last two years. I think it will be validating. My writing that I am sharing right now ( new to Substack this month) is an about parenting our daughter. I will also write on grief too. Sharing is new- both exciting and scary- vulnerable!

thanks!
