We’re back! Talking all things Christmas and Grief. Patrick asks me how it has been since we released Feeling Griefy, and I talk about what it’s felt like to share so much of my grief. I tell Patrick about my Mum’s heroic efforts to keep the magic of Christmas alive, and then share a bit too much of my medical history over Mum’s last Christmas… We also reflect on the tension of Christmas changing over time, and the difficulty that brings when it gets further away from the day Mum would have planned. Thank you for listening… please do let me know your thoughts and reflections. I’d love to hear them. Email me at [email protected]
