Grief & Loss

This is for those of you who have found my site through my writing on grief and losing my mum to terminal cancer in 2012.

Perhaps you are specifically looking for more guidance and information about loss, terminal illness and grief.

Or maybe you’re just looking (as I did) for words of comfort from someone who’s been through it and come out the other side.

And if you don’t yet know my story or the reasons behind first starting this blog, then perhaps first check out Why Funny Matters.
