1. Introduction
Along our journey, we not only share about our grief experience, but we also share and try to help and spread awareness on matters related to medical conditions and medical health conditions. This stems from our Dads original diagnosis of a serious life-threatening heart condition Infective Endocarditis. He also subsequently suffered from other conditions because of this such as Delirium. (We also have topics on Infective Endocarditis, Infective Endocarditis and Blindness, Delirium, Delirium Awareness, Rare Disease Day 28th February World Mental Health Day 10th October 2021)
As there are many Awareness Days, weeks within this month, we have combined them to try and cover as many as possible. We are aware we have not covered them all. We will also cover some separately so that this isn’t too big of a topic.
