I am wishing you a peaceful Christmas, Meredith. Grief is hard and I, personally, feel it is harder at this time of the year. I always find from the 26th December something lifts everso slightly; like a huge sigh of relief (but that is just me). Thank you for your great writing - it is always a pleasure to read especially during the challenging times we are all facing in the world right now. x

No, this time of year doesn’t have to be jolly. Who started that idea anyway? The best thing grieving people can do is to find ways to take care of themselves.

(I think it’s higher than 25%, the number of people experiencing grief at any given moment.)
