Show Notes

On this week’s episode we have Fran Hopkins! Fran is not only a member of the Dead Parent Club but also established the Manchester Let’s Talk About Loss group and now runs it alongside her fab co-hosts!

Fran’s Dad died around 18 months ago from cancer, just a short 7 months after being diagnosed. After putting his health first and building strong and loving relationships with his family, this shock diagnosis robbed him of his retirement plans and the life he, his wife and his family had envisioned for the future.

In this week’s episode you will hear Fran tell her own story of her grief journey where we not only discuss her Dad’s death and the aftermath but also how grief can manifest itself as a physical illness, her experience of Day of the Dead in Mexico and why she decided to set up her own grief group in Manchester!
