Sadness can sit alongside joy when you are grieving, it’s okay, it’s normal.

There should be no judgement, or rules. 🧡

Nobody wants to talk about baby loss, but why?
It's a genuine question, why are people so scared to talk about it?

What are your thoughts?

Sometimes in the early days of grief, reflecting & remembering can be so painful, it can just be too raw. But in time, we can often manage these memories better. ‘I visited you in a memory’ 🧡

[Cruse Bereavement Support @CruseSupport]

We know today can be a tough day for many who have had a partner die. Today can be a reminder of previous Valentine's days. These memories can be comforting and painful, too 💜

Who are you missing today? We invite you to share your loved one's name below 👇
