I am a Griefist: A Childhood Cancer Grief Journey Podcast

In this episode, we talk to Papa Steve. Mom has talked a lot about Papa Steve, but now we get to hear about a (step) grandfather's perspective.

Oh, what a tough month of events: celebration of cancer survivors, graduation, and compounded loss. This month we lost our beloved pet, Rosco, and would like to dedicate this episode to him. RIP little guy - thank you for being the best first forever puppy. We will miss you always.

In Part 2 with Cousin Angelina, we hear but can see clearly a young person's view of the surrounding grief. We also learn about how kids receive communication - or not!

We have a special guest on, Cousin Angelina, who talks us through her view as a child and having a cousin with childhood cancer.

Mom and I have identified some of the events or things that hit you like a ton of bricks on this grief journey. We call these things triggers. We share a bit about ours and what we've discovered about ourselves with triggers.

We share how we got through May 2021, full of events.

In this second installment with Uncle Jo, he shares how he copes and how he helps his family get through the tough times.

Uncle Jo joins us in Part 1 to provide a different perspective on the cancer journey - as a dude, as a brother, as an uncle, as a son, and as a parent.

Reflecting on having our first guest and coping through anniversaries.

Charlie's Mumma Kel and Charlie's Granny Ria share their grief journey: what they're doing to cope and how they continue to include Charlie in all they do.
