Maddie’s mom died from a rare form of breast cancer when Maddie was 13 years old. Her episode is bring released on the 20-year anniversary of her mom’s passing.
Maddie feels like she has finally begun to grieve after avoiding it for so long.
Maddie’s Take-Away: Be compassionate with yourself. There is no right way to grieve. Feeling numb is normal. And then if one day you no longer feel numb, and that is overwhelming and scary, please know you will make it through.
These are a few of the things that have helped Maddie begin to process her grief:
- EMDR Therapy
- The Dinner Party (www.thedinnerparty.org)
- Empower (www.weareempower.org)
