@desssnz: I feel like I’ve spent more than half my life grieving. From caring for my mom throughout her illness until her passing, to having our world turned upside down by my aunt’s tragedy just 7 days later. Sometimes it feels like I’ve been treading water for years, barely catching my breath. I’ve gotten so used to carrying the hard things in silence. Going completely dormant, shutting out the world, and waiting until I feel like myself again before allowing myself to show up. But I’m learning that I don’t always have to wait until I’m okay to be present in my own life. I want to show up as I am. Broken, exhausted, grieving, happy, hopeful, creative… whatever version of me I wake up as that day. grief doesn’t just disappear with time. Some days it’s quiet, and other days it feels just as heavy as it did four years ago. ❤️‍🩹🦋 #griefjourney #grief #caregiversupport #caregiver #braininjury
