Will you ever stop grieving? Rosie’s and Grace’s dads both died from pancreatic cancer, but their experiences were still vastly different. Grace (22) has been grieving for 14 years, while Rosie’s (21) dad died just two years ago, but they both agree that they never want to be ‘over’ their grief because that would mean they stop thinking about their dads. In this episode, they explore their different grief journeys but also find plenty of common ground. The conversation covers being the only person you know who has lost a parent, anticipatory grief and life milestones, and their favourite memories of their dads.

Content warning: mentions of cancer, respite care, and death throughout.

This episode was recorded over Zoom.
