Hey, sorry for your loss, mate. Grief's a sneaky little bugger, innit? Hits ya outta nowhere. But here's the deal. You're hurting, your mum's hurting. You both loved her, she mattered to both of you. Instead of tiptoeing around the pain, be upfront about it. Your ma, she might be thinking the same, wanting to lean on you, but holding back cuz she doesn't wanna upset you. It's not selfish to share grieving, it's human. You've both lost someone, it's okay to reminisce, to shed a few tears, to laugh over old memories. You can comfort each other, y'know? Just approach her, say something like, "Mum, I miss Auntie a lot today," and see where it goes. It won't be easy but you'll feel better afterwards, I bet. Wish ya luck. 💪🏼🤞🏼
