Alongside the picture of Cath, Lisa wrote: "Opening up on the grief of losing her mum, Lisa wrote: “Over two-thirds (69%) of people have been scared or embarrassed to talk about their emotions whilst grieving. But it is important to remember that all emotions are valid. It’s okay to feel angry, guilty, frustrated or resentful following a bereavement and you don’t need to downplay or hide your emotions."
