Hi, I’m the voice behind Still Here, Still Mom.
I am a widowed mom of two, writing through grief, loss, and the reality of life after suicide loss.
I created this space as a place to release what I am carrying, to write honestly about what this journey feels like, and to share the parts of grief people do not always talk about.
This is not a space built on perfect words or polished healing. It is a space for honesty. For sadness, anger, confusion, love, survival, and everything in between.
If you are here because you are grieving too, I want you to know that you are not alone.
Why I started this blog
I started this blog because writing feels like one of the only ways I can let some of this pain out.
I am not writing because I have answers. I am writing because this is my real life, and because I know there are other mothers, wives, families, and people carrying this kind of loss in silence.
If my words help even one person feel seen, understood, or less alone, then this space has meaning.
What you’ll find here
On this blog, I share reflections on grief, motherhood, survival, life after loss, and the complicated emotions that come with losing someone you love to suicide.
Some posts may be short and raw. Some may be longer and deeper. All of them will be real.
Thank you for being here.
One day at a time.
