Losing Hope

During your grief journey your feelings and emotions ebb and flow. I dont believe there's such thing as "highs" in the grief journey, more like lows and hope. Going into year 2 of losing my brother, I was losing hope because I felt that I had failed him in so many aspects. However, I have to remind myself that I haven't, that this is part of the journey and that Andreas is always with me.

In this episode I'm talking about the updates (or lack thereof) on my brother's case from the "Dirty Detective", how I was trying lo live a "normal life" when there's no such thing as normal anymore, spending a different Thanksgiving, seeing my family again at my sister's graduation, how I felt abandoned and alone, my now husband, and more.
