Hi Brian Just wanted to thank you for putting together this really important podcast. I am one of those people who listen b to your podcast regularly and get a lot of essential support in my grief journey. I have been meaning to leave comments but like many, always forget to do. Your podcast really highlighted how important this is to do as your contribution to the healing of grieving parents is invaluable and we would be lost without the work you and others do. Thankyou so much Brian
