Grief Specialist Charlene Lam (@Curating_Grief) has her life turned upside down ten years ago. She joined the DBL Panel to talk us through the process of losing a mother & how to #cope.

This year marks 10 years since my mom died.
Each new year can be a painful reminder for many grievers. Do you struggle with the idea of leaving your loved one behind?
Here's how I move forward (without leaving my mom behind):

That moment of absolute *glee* when you share pin cushions that belonged to your mom and grandmother during a #grief presentation, and an audience member holds up the exact same pin cushions from *their* family members! ππ

And what now? What do you do with the grief for individual losses stirred up by the collective grief exhibited at #queensfuneral?
I suggest:
- Take the time to grieve your losses.
- Create your own rituals.
- Put *your* loved ones in the spotlight.
