Episode 11
Tuesday, 6 September, 2022
Hosts Odette Mould and Sophia Giblin explore ways families can remember their late loved ones in this final episode.The first year after losing a loved one is particularly difficult. Events and special dates like birthdays, wedding anniversaries, Mother’s and Father’s Day, and Christmas are often somber and emotionally charged affairs. Many families struggle when thinking about doing something to celebrate their late loved one’s memory. The following years aren’t guaranteed to be any easier, Odette reminds listeners. Don’t expect to have it all together completely by the seventh or eighth year - you might think you’re managing and then all of a sudden you might struggle again around that time. Always remember to be mindful of yourself and those around you, she adds.Many families tend to switch up their tradition around occasions like Christmas, sometimes going away on vacation instead of staying home. It’s really about doing what works best for your family, whether that’s breaking tradition or dedicating some time to remember who you lost.Key TakeawaysThe first year after losing a loved one is particularly difficult when it comes to anniversaries and occasions.Don’t assume others aren’t struggling just because it’s not the first year after loss.Do what works best for your family.ResourcesHarry’s RainbowOdette Mould on LinkedInSophia Giblin on LinkedIn Donate to Harry's Rainbow
