From people who came through it
“When my dad went into palliative care, I thought I had to be strong. I didn't. The waiting is the worst part. You don't have to fill every silence. Just be there. If you need to cry, cry in the car. If you need to laugh at something stupid on TV, laugh. It's not betrayal. Your person is still here. That's what matters. Don't plan too far ahead. Just get through today, then tomorrow. That sounds like something off a fridge magnet but it's the only thing that works. And find someone to talk to, even if it's just online. You're not the only one going through this.”
marisol.paper · been through anticipatory grief“If you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are about three years ago. I remember planning a funeral while he watches telly like it was yesterday. Yesterday I booked a holiday. It doesn't stay this heavy. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
Jadez N · been through anticipatory grief“To whoever needs this: I was in the same place nearly four years ago. I remember when guilt for wishing it was over, like it was yesterday. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. One day at a time.”
Sulo T · been through anticipatory grief“The first time you forget she was ever different, that's the worst. I won't lie. It doesn't get easier. But you learn to live in the gaps. The crossword still helps. Coffee. The train. Small things. Don't expect anyone to understand. They won't. But you'll find your people. The ones who nod without saying anything. Hold onto them. And hold onto the good days. They come. Even now.”
