A few words I thought could help others understand someone’s Grief. Please help me adjust to my new normal. I might on days not want to face the world, but please keep asking me. When the funeral is over, this is when I need you the most. #grief #OpenUpToGrief #NGAW19 #poem

Around the world, different cultures and faiths have ways to remember the dead. This #Halloween, @DyingMatters is asking: Which of our loved ones do we want to bring to mind so that they are not forgotten? Who is it that you want to say: #IRemember? dyingmatters.org/page/i-reme…

Hallowe'en and All Saints Day were typically times of remembrance. To honour this, we will be holding a social media campaign all next week. I Remember will be a chance to share a photo and a memory of a friend or family member who has died. #IRemember dyingmatters.org/page/i-reme…

Shown a book today, called The Sixth Stage of Grief. Even if it's as an homage, the idea of a 'sixth stage' continues to tie us to this idea that grief is prescriptive. There are better ways of sharing our understanding of grief and embracing it for what it is. This is dangerous.
