I feel like I'm always the intense person at a party waiting for a conversation about death; with Emma Bairstow

Hey everybody!Welcome to this week's episode of the Dead Parent Club podcast! This week we have Emma Bairstow, a young Mum of a beautiful little girl and a fellow member of the DPC. Emma lost her Dad 3 years ago after he was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer. After complications with his stent nearly took his life very shortly after he was diagnosed, Emma and her family were able to spend the next couple of months spending quality time together before he passed. Most of us have experienced the change in identity that you feel after losing a loved one.. Emma however was not only grieving the loss of her Dad but soon found herself pregnant and became a mother very shortly after her loss. These were two hugely monumental events to take place in her 20s and, during a time where she could have done with her Dad's hand to hold, she had to navigate motherhood and friendships without him.I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!The name of this episode is my favourite quote of the whole episode because I was like 'YES, THAT'S ME!'! Thanks so much for coming on to the podcast, Emma!Where you can find meInstagram - @deadparentclubpodcastFacebook - Dead Parent ClubTwitter - @dpcpodcastWebsite - www.dpcpodcast.co.ukEmail - [email protected] this show http://supporter.acast.com/deadparentclub.
