Beautiful, fascinating + true. A chat through grief x
"I was personally shattered, and then you kind of reform yourself in this quiet, grieving world that was created in the house."
Comedian Stephen Colbert opens up to @andersoncooper about grief and the death of his dad and brothers in a plane crash when he was 10 years old.

We’re supporting charity shops where many bereaved people will go after someone they love dies. To dispose’ of clothing that hold so many precious memories can be one of the most distressing things to do. We want to offer signposting to local help #OpenUpToGrief #communityofcare

Hey Grievers! If you’re aged between 20-40 and based near Chelmsford (Essex, UK), we’re looking to organise a meet up for local ‘members of the club’. Date and time TBC, but if you’d like to join us and chat over a beer/soda pop, get in touch at [email protected] ✌🏻🖤⚰️

Let’s not be precious or competitive in our work. Talk to each other, share knowledge & initiatives. Don’t work in silos. We are working towards the same goal....to help those grieving the loss of someone they love. We can get there quicker if we do it together! #collaboration 🙏

⏰ This week I'm talking to writer + actor Barunka O'Shaughnessy (#Timewasters, Mighty Boosh) about her Dad. As ever we talk #grief, the 1960s + recognition. ❤️ Listen on @ApplePodcasts aca.st/48cdcc 🎧 #death #loss

A really interesting question - have you ever felt pressured to grieve in a certain way?
Do you ever feel guilty about not grieving the right way? How do you mark the anniversary of a lost one? #LooseWomen

All I want for father’s day is people to share memories of my dad (and maybe bring me ice cream sandwiches). #deaddadsclub

So if you missed me saying on this week's episode, i'll try and be on here tomorrow to help with #FathersDay but if you're feeling crap do use the hashtag #YouAreNotAlone or even #DDC and let's try and look after each other where we can ❤️❤️

All within one hour I will feel: happy about something, on the verge of a panic attack, grateful about something, so sad I want to cry, etc... Grief does a number on your emotions.

A very moving tribute to her mum, by Tessa Jowell's daughter Jess Mills @sloofficial 'I have learnt so much about the constantly changing kaleidoscope of loss' - what a lovely phrase - something we will all recognise. #GriefMatters

Thinking today of bereaved people. People who consistently report that friends and colleagues turn away, embarrassed and afraid to 'say the wrong thing.'
There's no right thing. We can't make them better.
Just listen. Let them to tell their story. Be there.

Not only was this a wonderful talk, we can also now form a new girl band/perform a terrible play about female friendships and this can be our poster. ❤️❤️
Brilliant to listen to @CoppaFeelPeople founder @KrisPoB, @thegriefcast host Cariad Lloyd, journalist @ericabuist & palliative care nurse @kimberleystjohn talk about death and dying. #EndofLifeMatters #itsgoodtotalk @VAULTFestival @GSTTnhs

"I search for you, your light, and your everlasting spirit. I search for signs of your love. I search because I know you aren’t entirely gone. Because you left pieces of yourself here – for me. Most of them tucked deep within my heart". stillstandingmag.com/2016/05…

One thing grief has taught me is absolutely everything can change in an instant. Grief gets your priorities in order and what society expects becomes irrelevant... #lifeafterloss #childloss
