Listening to her last video about how her and hubby went on not one but two “grief retreats” since Trigg passed is making me feel some kind of way. At this point I’m convinced she genuinely led herself to believe that what happened to Trigg was a freak accident that was unavoidable, which could not be further from the truth. I just cannot imagine my toddler drowning for 10full minutes in full sight while my neglectful husband is placing a sports bet, and me wanting to go on a grief retreat with said husband. She weirds me out.

Also, she keeps repeating that her grief counsellor and therapist told her that she deserves to feel happy and says she shouldn’t feel guilty for being happy again, but does she feel any guilt for what happened to Trigg? She will never admit to that. It sounds very cold to hear a mother emphasize her absolute right to feel happy again, months after her son died. No one is saying she can never feel happy again, but her son JUST passed away. Literally the only thing she shows is how happy she is. Baffling…

Yup. I was pretty understanding of her and almost defending her behaviour but it’s getting really odd now.

And I’m assuming the baby didn’t go on the 2 grief retreats so she left the baby with a family member I just could not!

Is the husband same age as her? Think she's only 26 not that that's any excuse for her behaviour, but it is all so bizarre. Going to a grief retreat I would feel would be something you might consider a few years down the line.

He's 29.

I really can't understand this narrative she's pushing that happiness can exist at the same time as grief. How on earth can she feel any kind of happiness? It's as if she's disassociating from the fact that they are responsible for his death.

I’ve lost count of how many times she said the word “happy” since he died. It’s nauseating.

Grief retreat - even the words makes me want to boak. Where she and her husband were no doubt patted on the back and told it wasn't their fault, yada yada, and that they deserve to be happy. When they really bleeping don't.

Firstly the words “ grief journey “ give me rage.

As if she took that worthless piece of tit to therapy with her.
If I had carried our baby for 9months and delivered that baby safely only for my husband to be unable to give his undivided attention and care to that baby for the grand total of 32 minutes that husband would be dead to me.

I must say it feels a bit weird this grief retreat as if they lost their son to a cruel illness and not the dads neglect

Whilst their situation is not one I have ever gone through myself, I am certain that if my husband’s neglect caused one of my children to die then I would never ever ever be able to forgive him or move past that. I would absolutely divorce him and insist on supervised contact with any other children. I just don’t understand how she is so…ok with everything? I do think they’ve basically convinced themselves it was some unavoidable freak accident to make it easier for them to process. Rather than what it actually was.

I know I’ve said it before but I think her brain is blocking his part in it out in order to protect her. She was vulnerable enough as it was being post partum, she probably feels like she needs him. Maybe once some time has passed she’ll see things differently.
Either that or, it’s a bit like the McCanns.
We don’t know how their conversations regarding the pool fence before all this went, or how ‘normal’ it was for him to be left unattended by both of them

She wont do that because she wont want to be on her own with a baby.
