Need a plan. On 15th Dec, it’ll be 13 yrs since my brother’s death. It is important for me to mark the day. This has been A YEAR (😱); I’m exhaustedly limping to the end of term/2024 (🥴). I’ve not had headspace to think/plan for the 15th but need to make some space for Martin+I… any ideas?! #NGAW24

I’m going to be on @bbcradiomerseyside tomorrow at 7.20am live, talking about my mum for grief awareness week.

Mum’s voicemail to me will also be played.
