Not all heroes wear capes.
Just a bit of light relief from everything crazy that’s going on in the world:
I helped my mum strip the wallpaper my stepdad had laid down in their bedroom. Kev, who passed 18 months ago, had left this message underneath for her.
Enjoy the little things💔

My mum’s friend used all my stepdad’s shirts, that she couldn’t part with, to make a blanket. He passed suddenly in 2019, in that bed.
Grief is a dull ache that never passes, but people’s generosity, kindness and compassion can ease it.
