Not everyone grieving on Mother's Day lost their mom to death. Some people are grieving the mom they needed and never had. A relationship that never recovered. A love they spent years trying to earn.
In this diary entry, Gabri talks about the grief that has no funeral attached to it. The kind that feels invisible on Mother's Day because everyone around you assumes the day is supposed to feel warm. She talks about a conversation she had recently with someone grieving a mom who is still very much alive and how that might be one of the loneliest things a person can carry.
This space is for that too.
