After the death of my husband Ian to suicide in 2015 I didnt realise how high risk my adult children were of also dying to suicide. I was ignorant to the risk and in 2019 my youngest daughter Beth aged 26 took her own life. We need to raise more awareness

Bereavement by suicide is a specific risk factor for suicide attempt among young bereaved adults, whether related to the deceased or not. Suicide risk assessment of young adults should involve screening for a history of suicide in blood relatives, non-blood relatives and friends.

I never knew there was an #InternationalBereavedMothersDay In every single moment of my life Beth I think of you not just today my darling girl. Thinking and sending love to every single mum who is holding their child in their hearts not in their arms. You are all warriors
