#Oliverscampaign Few things are more hurtful to a grieving parent than hearing, "Time heals." Ask yourself, could you ever get used to your own child not being here? People often mean well, but words like this don’t help. They leave us feeling guilty for missing our children.

Some people seem to honestly believe, 2 years after my daughter died, that I am feeling “better now”. I get that they want me to be ok but as if anyone moves on from child loss. I don’t think it’s hard to work out that’s a loss that time cannot heal 💔
