    Chunk’s Eczema Pyjamas by Skinnies

    31st August 2014

    My Hunt for Additive-Free Kid’s Shampoo…

    19th March 2014

    Recently I found out how certain additives in food can affect children’s (and adult) behaviour/mood, and shockingly these same additives can be found in our toiletries. I don’t want to waste all the effort I’m making to ensure my son isn’t getting these additives in his food by giving him these same chemicals when bathing…

I talked to people about my fears of him going now I talked to people about my fears of him going nowhere and never seeing him again,  and many more detailed questions, then later that day I asked for a sign via song and this song came on shuffle play as soon as i asked. The lyrics answer everything I asked. Was it stuart? #grievingwidow #griefjourney #grieveoutloud

Sitting in barbers with my son and suddenly had fl Sitting in barbers with my son and suddenly had flashback to last time we were here in August the day before my mum's funeral. 

I was a shaky mess having just lost my partner who was supposed to be at her funeral with me, and i was silently crying and having a shaking panic attack in a crowded barbers. 

A few weeks later im here again but been able to converse with barber and sit without panicking. 

Small progress is being made and I didnt register that until now.

Anyone else dealing with such huge loss, please remember, take it day by day, hour by hour and try to check in with yourself sometimes to see the progress you've made, because its so easy to miss the tiny achievements amidst the grief.
