Hello. I’m so sorry to hear about your mum. I lost my mum in May and it is hard. How old are your kids? Do you really have to put on a smile for them? It might be hard for them to understand how your mum has died but you look happy. Also, in turn, it could be that they feel they have to act happy if they have children and you die. Could you talk to them about how you really feel?
Sending Love and my thoughts. Be kind to yourself xxxx
