The final words to your parent: Expectations vs. Realities: with Chloe Kent

Each of our experiences of saying goodbye to our parent/s for the last time are different. Whether you were with them when they passed, travelled to the hospital afterwards, or had to find your own individual way of saying goodbye - it's never what we quite expect. In this episode, we chat with Chloe Kent who shared a sketch based on her own experience of her final goodbyes to her mum, which you can watch here.

Would you go back and change what you said or how you acted if you could? You can listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and all the other streaming platforms.
