“I never want my kids to feel I wasn’t honest. Years later, they shouldn’t say, ‘Mum, you didn’t tell me this.’”.

Despite the pain, Kelsey Parker remains determined to maintain normalcy for her kids. “They have to go to school. I did the school run because you have to rip the plaster off,” she said.
She and partner Will Lindsay take each day as it comes.
“Grief looks different for everyone. If you can’t get out of bed, don’t. If you can face the day, do,”
she advised.
Social media became overwhelming, so she stepped away.
