Episode 2: The Days After: Planning a Funeral for Your Child

May 1, 2026

What happens after the shock… when reality starts to set in?

 In this episode of Grieving Greatly, I share what it was like in the days after losing my son, Harry—when the world expected us to start making decisions, planning a funeral, and somehow keep going while completely falling apart. This is the part of grief no one prepares you for.

The practical reality. The conversations. The unbearable weight of making choices for someone you love who should still be here. I talk about what those days felt like for me and my family—how we navigated saying goodbye to Harry, and how grief and responsibility collided in ways that felt impossible to carry.

 If you’ve been through this, you’ll know how disorienting and surreal it can be. If you haven’t, this episode may help you better understand what someone in grief is truly experiencing beneath the surface. You don’t have to have the right words. You just have to be there.
