​Journey of grief

​Part 2 Warning content is Raw and real 

Heal your Heart

​The days after my loss of Jasmin.
The very next morning was Easter and the Easter bunny had to visit for our daughter who was still asking when her sister was coming home.
Wow how do you explain this.
Numb numb
The days and months that followed was a cyclone of emotions.
We had a funeral to plan.
And my husband just found out he would need to transfer 8hrs away or be out of a job.
Bang door in the face.
The mind is not processing so we need to ask for help of others to take notes while planning the funeral.
We tried to make decisions based on our needs.
We where concerned for our daughter being only 3 at the time.
We decided to evolve her as much as we could.
No matter your decisions there will always be that someone how does not agree and are happy to tell you.
We decided to have our daughter present at the service and she did what she felt was right for her.
Shocked a few guests though when she grabbed their hand and dragged them up to the little white coffin and placed their hand on the side and said you can talk to my sister.
Wow we didn’t see that coming and neither did others. What do you do .. roll with it.
She was doing what felt right for her.
I believe we need to let others express themselves in a way they feel comfortable.
Let’s express not suppress our emotions. TBC
