Benji's Thoughts
My heartbreaking & painful task of how to tell my child about Loss & Death
I sit here with that familiar horrible gut wrenching feeling, an actual physical pain stabbing my heart as I recall the horrendous day we had to tell our beautiful boy Harry that his adored little brother Adam had just died. In my lastest blog, inspired by many out there who contact me in despair looking for guidance and support, I have for the first time outlined our life defining experience in the hope that it will offer some insight in how to tackle such devastating news to a child.
The important issue here to remember in the madness of grief is that the loss of one child does not automatically mean the loss of another childs happy future. Somewhere, somehow we have to look for rebirth from death so life is not impossible for those of us who are left behind.
