September 10th marks the 10 year anniversary of my brother's early departure. Loss, of any typeβbe it of a loved one, friendships, furry friends, opportunitiesβis never easy. Today, I'm sharing what I wish I knew 10 years ago when the most unexpected and life-altering (ironically, in the best way possible) event happened in my life. For anyone who's going through something similar, we (productive potato fam) gotchu, and we're sending you all the love π stay strong, stay hopeful, and remember, you're not alone *text hug* π€
