To the woman who has lost her mother: Sit with me. Tell me about her. How she laughed. What did it sound like? I wish I could hear it, too. Tell me about her face. What parts do you miss most? What parts do you love? Let’s remember together.
To My Clients, today’s post is for you, to thank you. You are the bravest people I know. You, my client, have lost someone you love. And still, you are willing to sit in the quiet of a room with me, and with grief.
