Birthdays

Coping with bereavement
1

The 17th August would have been mums 89th birthday. It was her 2nd birthday with the angels and not us.
My grief has reappeared with vengeance the last few days (not that it ever goes, but its usually much quieter than this)
My phone told me repeatedly it was her birthday thanks to a calendar reminder, then facebook told me as well…

These special ‘happy’ dates (birthday, anniversaries) hurt so much x

I think it is normal for the anniversaries to give a bit of fuelling to the grief. I am sorry you’re struggling but please know you’re not alone. Every day is different I think in how things affect us
