Grief
Grief. Such a taboo subject... When Elizabeth died I wondered what could possibly help. I am a reader, so I looked to books and began my search. There are a few self-help books on the market, but I was surprised to find very little choice. There were even less written in the UK with many written in America. I had to get on with things for the other children, but I just wanted to read something which mirrored some of my feelings. I had always remained so positive up until Elizabeth died, I needed something else to help me see some positives somewhere! Rewinding back to when Elizabeth started to get grizzly and sleepier than normal. I knew something was wrong, but I always hoped for a miracle, I have found stories where the tumour suddenly stabilises or suddenly shrinks. I also hoped for some treatment just to give us that bit more normal time as a family and get her on that trip to Disneyland. Unfortunately, that was not...
