I hope you will follow me on Instagram instead and keep our conversation going! You can find me @widowedparentproject there. I’ve so loved meeting so many of you online (and even a few in-person) and this account helped me face so much of my own grief. Thank you. 2/2

I’ve made the hard decision to wind down this account at year’s end. I was hopeful when Twitter became X that maybe the impact on my #griefcommunity here wouldn’t be so bad but I almost never see the ones I follow anymore. The algorithm just dumps MAGA content day and night. 1/2

10 years ago today I stood in my local Barnes and Noble, looking for a book that could teach me how to parent grieving children when my heart was shattered. Look what just arrived at my local B&N! #fullcircle #chaosmagic #widowedparenting #shipwrecked
