Hi mum, I started some bereavement counselling yesterday. I’m not sure what my expectations are around it but I’m trying to keep ahead of things and be proactive.
I’m hoping that having some protective time to talk about you, my thoughts and feels etc will be beneficial. I’m trying to learn who I am now without you. I feel like when you died, the child in me died too, now I need to get to know this ‘woman’ I am and how she works. I miss you so much. This isn’t getting easier, life just gets busier and I’m doing everything I need to do, people move forward, but I still feel lost inside.
I love you mum, I wish more than anything that I could have a hug from you.
