As a counsellor, I regularly help people navigate the turbulent waters of grief. It’s an emotion so powerful and profound that it defies complete understanding until it touches our lives. In this video, I share my journey through grief stemming from the loss of my brother when I was just 16. Here’s a snippet from that poignant moment:
“My brother, Scott, had been in the hospital for what we believed was a routine issue. He’d been in and out for a couple of months. So, when my dad showed up unexpectedly at my rugby training, I sensed something was wrong. I walked over and asked, ‘What’s going on, Dad?’ He turned to me, speechless, with red and raw eyes. It was the first time I truly understood intuition. Without a word, I knew. ‘It’s Scott, isn’t it?’ I asked. My dad nodded, unable to speak. ‘He’s dead, isn’t he?’ I pressed. And again, he nodded. At that moment, my whole life caved in. The foundations of my life collapsed.”
