Navigating Life, Death & Dying

Sharing my reflections as I care for my mum who's living with the impact of memory loss and cognitive changes. I stepped out of social work late 2018. We're both in unknown territory. Ageing, Death and Dying, Loss and Grief and Trauma are my great interests. I'm outraged that the ways "we" respond: "our" survival strategies - are often pathologised, labelled and medicalised as "mental illness." This impoverishes human responses to overwhelming emotional distress: ignoring systemic injustices.
