Today on MS Understood we are chatting with Jo Betz, who is giving grief a voice. I first heard Jo's story about loosing her husband suddenly on another podcast and knew that I needed to talk with her for the MS Understood podcast about grief. We talk about the 5 stages of grief and how it's a great initial framework but doesn't list all of the emotions that we go through. We talk about the bullshit 'self care' and how on those days of deep grief it's really important to look after our basic needs. While Jo's experience of grief is around death and ours is around an incurable illness there are so many similarities between how we process these incredible emotions. I hope you get something out of this chat, just as I did.
