In the UK, we have a real problem with talking about grief. For many experiencing bereavement, revisiting old memories can be one of the only ways to cope. A moment looking at social media profiles, a final post, an old photo or video. For some, it's the answerphone message on a machine, or messages left and saved.
Such memories are a powerful way to bring people back for a moment. But they shouldn't be people's only way of coping.
At Sue Ryder, we believe grief deserves better. We want the nation to open up about death and grief. Together we can make sure no one faces death or grief alone.
As a part of our Back for a Moment campaign, we're pleased to have three Loose Women - Kaye Adams, Kelle Bryan and Colleen Nolan - open up about their experiences of grief.
It is normal to feel lonely if someone important to you has died. This page explains why you might be feeling lonely after a bereavement, and suggests things you can do to feel better.
For over 70 years Sue Ryder's doctors, nurses and carers have given people the compassion and expert care they need to help them live the best life they possibly can.
