#2 Hatim Eldawi - Caring for a terminally ill parent living with ALS the anticipatory grief.

Bereavement Room

Welcome back to Bereavement Room Podcast, the third and final season!

Kicking off season 3 is Hatim Eldawi, we both met on Clubhouse when we were on stage sharing our experiences of grief.

I invited Hatim to Bereavement Room to talk to me about his dad who was living with ALS, the challenges that came from travelling to and from Sudan whilst studying and working in California. We also reflect on how picking up your parents personal care can humble your ego and the humour that comes with bereavement and grief.

Hatim hilariously describes what it was like missing out on going to Cabo with his friends as he had to travel to Sudan instead to take care of his dying father and how not many young people have to deal with the anticipatory grief that comes with a terminally ill parent.

Hatim created a blog in memory of his father, perspectives from a 23 yr old loving son, please do check out his personal blog over at https://www.babaeldawi.com/, you can also find Hatim on instagram, go show him some love!
