© Copyright 2019 Grief Probate Journey Blog MARCH 2020 Wow, we are NINE MONTHS OLD. We feel honoured to have made it this far. We truly are grateful that we’ve been able to bring a vision to light and maintain its purpose. This blog truly has been a journey in itself. At times it feels […]

Anniversaries and Grief

This topic feels strange. Inevitably, the entire blog is relatable to us. But this topic is so close to home that it seems surreal. We are providing links, which in fact are suggestions of how we could/should be addressed. This is weird to compute in our minds. We are writing about something… Please see Anniversaries […]

Grief and Self Confidence

To say our ordeal has knocked our confidence is a huge understatement. This affects us in many ways, especially when having to make decisions of huge responsibility. A massive part of how we feel stems from before our Dad even passed away. It is also down too: The staff at the hospital where our Dad […]

Guilt and Grief

This topic came about from watching a programme called Long Island Medium. One of the people’s loved one’s said it is okay for you to smile, it is okay for you to be happy, you are not living your life as you have guilt. We can relate to this 100%. That is exactly how we […]

Misunderstood and Grief – Men and Grief

Associating the word Grief to my sister and I feels strange. It doesn’t feel as though it should be attached to us, as it’s not what we are going through…We decided to include Men and Grief in this topic, as we are aware that Men can also be misunderstood in their grief. Their grief and […]

We wish to try and contribute to breaking down this taboo…. Please see Taboo and Grief […]

Hobbies and Grief- Guest Feature: Jane Edberg: The Fine Art of Grieving

Having taken a picture of the latest cake made (our Mum’s Christmas Birthday cake Christmas 2019) and looking back on how many cakes have been made during this past year is where the idea for this topic came about. Cake making wasn’t a planned hobby, it just happened naturally…. Please see Hobbies and Grief which […]

Strength and Grief

This topic came about as we’ve been thinking about the fact that not only is it New Year, but it is also a new decade. Thinking of how we would get through this year, we know it will require many things, but strength is one of them. This is why we chose to cover this […]

New Year and Grief

As we are approaching a new year. The feelings are hard to explain. The ending of a year in usual circumstances can bring about many thoughts feelings emotions. Add grief on top of that and it is a whole different story. For us, this is the second year we have gone without our Dad in […]
