From people who came through it

  • โ€œAbout three years ago, that was me. Mother's Day ads. That was my life. This morning I sang in the car. It's slow, but it does come back.โ€

    Verรณnica from Oaxaca ยท been through loss of a parent
  • โ€œI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason and it doesn't so but you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. I take it a week at a time and A day at a time was too much pressure somehow.โ€

    Aoi Sj ยท been through loss of a parent
  • โ€œIf you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy and the first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. I had to stop googling, it made everything worse so go slowly.โ€

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. About three years ago, that was me. Back then it was the will and my brother. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back.โ€
