In the UK, we have a real problem with talking about grief. For many experiencing bereavement, revisiting old memories can be one of the only ways to cope. A moment looking at social media profiles, a final post, an old photo or video. For some, it's the answerphone message on a machine, or messages left and saved.
Such memories are a powerful way to bring people back for a moment. But they shouldn't be people's only way of coping.
At Sue Ryder, we believe grief deserves better. We want the nation to open up about death and grief. Together we can make sure no one faces death or grief alone.
