Aww, bless your heart, Liv. This was lovely. I lost my mum last year too, so I know exactly how you feel. She's from Barbados, and I plan on scattering her ashes there when I'm up to it. Thank you and take care x

What a beautiful account of love and loss. It's true - grief causes physical pain but it does eventually become manageable. Sending you gratitude and creative light from my pocket of south-east London. Clare x

Thank you for such a vulnerable and beautiful share. I am so sorry that your Dad and you all went through this. Your learnings are profound and your poem is magic.

Thank you for sharing Liv ♥️. This was hugely relatable having lost my own dad at 28, 1.5 years ago. Losing a parent at any age sucks but man I did not for second think it would happen so young. Definitely took years together for granted with dad. And MND is a particularly cruel disease...my friends dad recently died from it...Well one day, gone the next. Keeping looking after yourself (it’s something I too have not been prioritising)...and hope that glimpses of light and hope continue to pierce through the at times crushing weight of grief. You’ve reminded I should go back to acupuncture too. X
