Ep. 110 - Two sisters grieving their mother's suicide | Kristyna and Veronika

Understand Suicide

Kristyna and Veronika Delmar are from the Czech Republic and they lost their mother to suicide a little over a year ago. In this interview, they share with us the different paths they took to live through their grief.

Kristyna tried to “learn" everything she could about the topic by reading books and trying to get in touch with people who were going through the same kind of loss. Veronika was the one who found their mother, so this shock permeated her pain and it still does. She still tries to suppress her emotions and acknowledges that anger is still taking center stage.

This moving interview touches on a universal theme when it comes to suicide: how do families deal with each other’s grief journeys? Is it possible to respect and support each other through suicide loss? Their candid story shows us that nothing is more healing than love, compassion, and the understanding that when suicide happens, we are inherently bound by a shared loss.
