I’m getting ready to meet with my small group of four Year 7s on Wednesday. We’ll be focusing on anxiety. I've been shopping to buy a notepad and pen for each of them. I have found in the past it has really helped me when I write things down about how I have felt.

Honestly, I don’t know why, but I’m really struggling with your loss lately. It’s 114 months today since you died. People often ask if child loss gets easier with time. The answer is simple: no, it doesn’t. You just learn to carry the weight. Missing you always, Charlotte. Mummy x
