“As harrowing as it was there was some comfort knowing that we were all on the same team.” Stacey Heale on bereavement.

In this episode, we chat to former academic, turned writer and TEDx speaker Stacey Heale whose husband, Delays drummer Greg Gilbert, died from bowel cancer last year. Since Greg's death Stacey has used social media to document her family’s journey, offering an honest insight into “how to live well in the rubble of your life.”

The mother of two discusses the difference between expectation and reality of death and grieving, the painful moment her and Greg told their children he was dying and what life looks like for her now.
