On July 5th it will be a year since Mia passed away. And although we, as a family, will carry this with us forever, for others normal life resumed within a week or two. But for us, every photo evokes memories. But not just images. Fragrances too. Music. Anything can evoke a memory.
July 5th is will be a year ago. We try to close things off. That is not possible, because Mia is a part of our lives forever. This past year, we have done everything without her for the first time. An eerie feeling. We have gone through the stages of the grieving process and learned to accept that she is no longer there. Eventually we succeed. Although (still) with difficulty.
Others do not know her well enough or hardly enough to miss her that much. They have continued with their own lives. And that is fine. For us, maybe I should say for me, it was important to write down my memories of her. How we met, and in a crazy short moment of time fell in love - engaged - married and also welcomed our first child. In retrospect it seems as if we did everything at high speed. As if there was a slight compulsion to experience everything quickly. But even after the inevitable end, there is one who has to bear and process the loss.
I invite you to get to know Mia better in the story "End of the Season". A true love story. With all its ups and downs, but above all a lot of Love and Laughter! Let's say: Bridget Jones experiences real life.
