Mum-e Matters: Recent Episodes
Rakhee Joshi
Baby loss is a complex subject, and we often find many mothers who are not supported by the family or even by their spouses. These mothers have very little solace and often find themselves in a very vulnerable state in which, the grief becomes unbearable and when there is no one to talk to, how do these mothers move ahead with their lives and start again?
I talk to many mothers and charities who have been through similar circumstances and share their stories on how to cope with this tragedy. Follow me on this journey where I take on this challenge of making sure that mothers matter and that there is always someone to talk to and help them.
