Today is the1 year anniversary of my husbands diagnosis of Leukaemia. He died 20 weeks ago. I’ve been really finding it difficult, thinking of nothing else for days.
I had decided to give everyone a wide birth today because I felt so sad.
I wanted a distraction so I looked on YouTube and on the recommended front page was the excerpt from the Russell Howard show, where Rob Delaney is interviewed and talks all about losing his son to cancer and how his life has been. It is the most beautiful, moving and real thing I’ve ever seen where someone so eloquently speaks of loss, and it completely blew me away. He talks so candidly and you will have to excuse the liberal swearing but don’t let that put you off.
Yes it will make you cry but it is more than just sentimental. It’s something else.
It really helped me and it doesn’t matter whether you lost a child, a wife or another person you adored. It’s just spot on.
