Sadly grief from the loss of a child can be brought to anyone's door, at any time, in a wide variety of ways.

Griever's Path

Grief is hard and it is not something we often talk about or have modelled too us in order to have a frame work of where to begin. Even when we have an idea about grief, our own individual experience can be very different to those around us, yet that does not mean we are grieving wrong.

In the words of David Kessler

"For you, dear griever, your grief is the worst"

and I agree with this statement whole heartedly.

Grief can be very daunting, especially if this is your first experience of grief.

There is no wrong or right way to grieve but we do need to develop an understanding that grief isn't just felt in the mind, it ripples through the whole body. Broken Heart Syndrome, is not a made up fantasy illness, it is a serious, sometimes life threatening condition that can occur after the death of a loved one. This is where the impact of the death can be physcially and mechanically seen on the grievers heart.

Why get grief support from a Vilomah?

Lets be honest, why wouldn't you? If a grieving mother cannot help you understand the weight and the issues around the grief you are carrying, who can?

A Vilomah, has a deep understanding of just how much grief alters every element of a person's life, but is also kind, caring and compassionate as a mother and can listen to the things you feel you cannot share anywhere else.

Who is creator behind all this support?

Hello, I'm Samantha!

My mission is to help other grievers find their light in the darkness of grief. I know that in grief you need to become physically and emotionally active, rather than shut down or running away from it all. But I also understand how hard it can be to take those early steps into this forever changed life.

The grief support boxes, 1 to 1 coaching and other services I offer have been created from a combination of my lived experience of grief and the knowledge gained as part of my qualifications and ongoing professional development.
