From people who came through it

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, I was in the same place eighteen months ago. I remember my husband and I with nothing to say like it was yesterday. These days I mostly feel like me. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. Mine was setting the table for four. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy. xโ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was setting the table for four. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

  • โ€œThe quiet is the hardest part at first. I am only a few months ahead of you. For me, the first weeks I just sat and listened to the clock. Then I started going to the charity shop and that gave me a reason to get up. I also walk. Every day. It does not fix it but it helps. Your child will come home and then leave again, and that is okay. You will find a new rhythm. It is slow, but it comes.โ€
