Prevent the Preventable Podcast

A widow's story: Picking yourself up after losing someone you love to a brain haemorrhage


Listen Later

In this deeply moving conversation, host Fiona Moss speaks with Katy Armstrong, who shares her personal story of losing her husband suddenly to a brain haemorrhage. With honesty and courage, Katy talks about how she navigated the shock, grief, and overwhelming change that followed — and how she is slowly rebuilding her life for herself and her children.
This episode is for anyone who has experienced loss, supported someone through it, or simply wants to understand the impact of brain haemorrhage on the families left behind.


Together, we explore:
What happened on the day Katy lost her husband


How grief showed up in her everyday life


Parenting through loss and helping children cope


The importance of support systems — practical, emotional, and social


Advice for others walking through sudden bereavement


What “picking yourself up” really looks like
