Grief Sash: I can't stop grieving
steel, cotton thread, brass
Long after my mother’s passing, my grief continued. Being around others was difficult because of all of the emotions that came along with my grief. I felt very exposed as though everyone knew how sad I was and this was embarrassing. I often avoided social gatherings, many times left stores in tears and had trouble even facing the day. I now understand that these feelings are not unusual during grief. Grief Sashes convey some of the thoughts and feelings I felt were so obvious at certain moments.
