December in Thailand. Christmas. Family and friends brought together for a holiday at the beach. The last Christmas before everything would change unexpectedly the next day.
Clemmie Clough, 31, recalls her mother saying, "remember to take the cushions inside," when they saw something strange happening with the sea. Clemmie was 13. She was swept away, along with her mother, sister, and others who were with them.
Clemmie shares where she is now in her grief journey. She also tells us about the present that everyone gets when their person leaves this earth. A present that must be cared for, or it can make your life a mess.
Clemmie's advice: It's really shit some days and some days it's less shit. It does get better. Keep talking to your friends because they're there to help you.
