    Thank you for sharing things people think we shouldn't talk about. The society expects one to dust off and move on like nothing happened.
    I hope that one day I will get the courage and ability to get the help I really require, grieving can be a monster. Tired of acting strong.

      Gakii is a Meru. A good number of aMeru people have Borana/Oromo or Somali DNA genes because Merus share borders with them. Fro Isiolo to Igembe. She could pass as Cushite.

    Thank you for sharing this ❤ my daddy passed away in the year 2019, after my youngest brother's admission to a national highschool. Results were released yesterday, he passed so well. We had gathered as a family and at the mention of how happy daddy would be, to see the boy's victory, we broke down, 😭😭😭😭 we felt his absence as if he left us a week or a month ago.. Yeah, it's a journey. Continue resting papa.

    Well done Sherie for sharing your story so boldly for the sake of many who identify with that level of grief. Thank you for creating mental health awareness as a person with lived experience, around grief and trauma, and advocating for therapy. Counselling works.

    Lost my dad last year and it will be 1yr next week and I can really relate with you, I have felt like you are telling my story and learnt alot from your story and hopefully this pain ends some day.... Some nights I break down after I thought am over with grieving and life is back to normal.... It never gets to "normal" after grief, learning how to handle it and taking a day at a time

    Loss of loved ones is very individual ..(even btwn sablings its never black and white).
    Am over 50, Dads boy, lost him 16 yrs back, for 7yrs I would cry endlessly. BUT...The most therapeutic part of your narration is when you talk of rediscovering yourself. That's the positive energy that can be consumed in its diversity ...but only when it's taken in the collect trajectory .
    ...There can never be a common solution ...

    "The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not 'get over' the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to." - Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
