How can the word normal and grief even appear in the same sentence ?
Unbelievabley and sadly they do.

When someone we love dies, we find ourselves trying to live with our new “normal”, …. as normal as it can possibly be to try and get through our everydays without them by our sides. Where they should be.

The question I am most often asked is, “is it normal? “ as in …..Is it normal to feel like I am going mad? Is it normal to feel like I can’t catch my breath ? Is it normal to have this pain like my heart is breaking ? Is it normal to wake up and imagine for a moment it didn’t happen ?

Sadly yes it is. For grief that is.

Before we lose someone we love , normal is just something we accept without noticing it. In grief that changes. Knowing the way we are feeling is normal can help even though it is the very last way we want to feel. Normalising the agonising symptoms of loss can somehow makes us feel less alone and less out of control.

I am sorry for your loss. And I am so sorry you are having to get used to the new normal that you wish was anything but ❤️❤️

I dont normally post things like this but I think it is absolutely imperetive that death, grief and the formalities of funerals, estates and inheritance are taught in secondary schools. I think it should be taught in line with s*x education and how life is created. After all, we cannot have one without the other. Please sign this petition and get it to the 10,000 signatures needed for it to be discussed in parliament.

Schools should be required to provide age-appropriate education to help children understand death as a part of life, as part of compulsory Relationships education. On average 111 children in the UK lose a parent every day.

So very true. Grief does not come with a time limit.

Phillip came to me today,
and said it was time to go.
I looked at him and smiled,
as i whispered that "I know"

I then turned and looked behind me,
and saw I was asleep.
All my Family were around me,
and I could hear them weep.

I gently touched each shoulder,
with Phillip by my side.
Then I turned away and walked,
with My Angel guide.

Phillip held my hand,
as he lead the way,
to a world where King's and Queens,
are Monarch's every day.

I was given a crown to wear
or a Halo known by some.
The difference is up here,
they are worn by everyone.

I felt a sense of peace,
my reign had seen its end.
70 years I had served my Country,
as the peoples friend.

Thank you for the years,
for all your time and love.
Now I am one of two again,
in our Palace up above.

You Don’t Just Lose Someone Once…

You lose them over and over,
sometimes many times a day.
When the loss, momentarily forgotten,
creeps up,
and attacks you from behind.
Fresh waves of grief as the realization hits home,
they are gone.
Again.

You don’t just lose someone once,
you lose them every time you open your eyes to a new dawn,
and as you awaken,
so does your memory,
so does the jolting bolt of lightning that rips into your heart,
they are gone.
Again.

Losing someone is a journey,
not a one-off.
There is no end to the loss,
there is only a learned skill on how to stay afloat,
when it washes over.

Be kind to those who are sailing this stormy sea,
they have a journey ahead of them,
and a daily shock to the system each time they realize, they are gone,
Again.

You don’t just lose someone once,
you lose them every day,
for a lifetime.

Feeling this today. Yesterday marked 11 months since I lost my one and only sibling, my wonderfully kind and clever brother, Daniel.

Had a very interesting time at Bramcote Crematoriums open day. Really informative look at the day to day workings of the Crem. The furnaces and how the ashes are cared for post cremation showed just how sensitivley the staff handle the deceased.

For those who have had to say their final farewells. I hope this day passes gently and your fathers memories leave you with a smile x

For those of us still lucky enough to have our fathers in our life. Happy fathers day.

I spent yesterday at the National Funeral Exhibition. It was a real eye opener as to what is now available to the deceased and the families left behind. I hope to be able to use some of the ideas I picked up to help my families navigate this painful and bewildering time in their lives.
