My Mum passed away; my brother & I wrote a few words to let our friends and family know.

I wish I could claw back time and be there to hug my mother one more time; to talk to her; to be in her presence; to care for her how she needed to be cared for. I wish I could do it over. I wish I …

This morning, Bearface fell asleep for the last time. A cat like no other, a loving companion, our best friend. I saved him, then when I was lost, he saved me. He was my angel. We’re taking a little time away x

Goodbye, Ethel. I rescued you, but you rescued me, too. 💔

The National Covid Memorial Wall lit up this evening for a day of reflection and remembrance, a year after the first heart was painted. Just the number of hearts and tributes, it hits you every time.

Today I planted Ally’s forget-me-nots! Part of my holiday PTO was for her 22nd birthday in Vegas, December 17th. The following week, we lost her to suicide. suicidepreventionlifeline.org

I lost 3 friends to suicide the last 3 months of 2021. Losing Ally so soon after her birthday felt like a literal joke. This was the last thing she texted me. Call your friends (even ones that “seem ok”), ask how they’ve been doing, get coffee, BE THERE! Show up. 🤍

I dont post a lot of personal stuff but I do want to take a second to appreciate Ally (sometimes Sally) and remind everyone, once again, to check in on your friends. I don’t know how many times people asked me if I noticed something different that weekend. I didn’t.

i feel like i've been trapped in slow motion since pearl died not just because of her either, at least not directly. i don't know everything is just kinda weird

Okay, so. My dad died late Saturday night/early Sunday morning. He had ALS, so we knew it was coming, just not so soon. We were going to go see him in the new year, but now we're having to work out flights and tests and everything. I don't have details. I just miss him.

Vesty was a daddy's girl and Smoky is absolutely a momma's boy. Although the loss of Vesty hit us really hard, I think the loss of Smoky will be even worse for my wife, when that time comes. I love four foots so much but their passing rips me apart. It never gets easier.

I have an album on my phone where all my pictures I took during are, and they're my "awful inherited sofa" grief room. Tonight I'm sitting in it for a while. (Writing by Jenn Frank)

Sharing in case it helps someone. Cashew ended up having Distemper and it started progressing to the neurological phase this week. He was vaccinated but likely had it the entire time we had him and there’s nothing more the vets can really do for him. He’s not going to make it.

Spending the little time we got with him was a blessing and I don’t regret rescuing this little sick puppy even if I’m the saddest I’ve ever been today. Keep your pets up to date on their vaccinations. Get puppies from responsible breeders. Kiss your pets today.

Just got a calendar notification for my 14-week pregnancy appointment...I miscarried 4 weeks ago. This is why we don't need AI's to stitch photos together and autoplay "memories" for us. Not all reminders are good reminders. Technology can be great but it can also be harmful.

Do you hear that sound? It’s every screenwriter in the world whispering a reverent “FUCK” under their breath. #WandaVision

Thinking of everyone affected by pregnancy loss this evening - a candle is lit for my three losses 💛💛💛 #WaveOfLight #BLAW #BLAW2020

One of the neighbours has someone visiting with a new-born and the crying is like a dagger to my heart. I should have given birth two weeks ago had I not miscarried again... I wish I didn't feel so much sometimes. Sigh. Onwards! (after a very small cry of my own)

This is first time in two and a half years I’ve changed my lock screen since Jessica’s passing. This may seem minor but it was a big step for me to find the courage to do this without having any guilt. I know Jess would want me to be happy and carry on life without any guilt.❤️
