Agree - I think it would be so valuable for her to talk about the challenges of bonding with Cyprus in those circumstances as well as being more frank about the impacts on those around her. Maybe she isn’t ready yet and it’s still a work in progress. But she obviously isn’t the only woman/parent to have fallen into this situation so rather than the whole ‘it’s a miracle’ narrative some real tangible advice would be so helpful as she has such a big platform and it could help a lot of people. Having said that no one should feel the pressure of becoming an ambassador / guide for something traumatic unless they’re comfortable with it - however - she does seem really comfortable with being the ambassador for the airy fairy manifest your health back narrative soooo why not switch up the messaging and be real and really help guide some people going through the same fucked up experience.All her posts are literally about HER, when really there was just as much stress and trauma for Lee, her family, even the medical staff who treated her - I am medical and worked right through the pandemic and honestly to say it was gruelling for us all is a massive understatement. I just find her whole approach to it all very selfish. I am in no way trying to minimise what happened to her, there's no getting away from the fact it was horrendous but I also have often wondered about Lee's feelings in all this, I cannot imagine the stress and desperate times he must have gone through, first his parter in serious decline in hospital, then Cyprus' early emergency birth and Grace's subsequent coma. They must have been extremely dark times for Lee and her family. Then he has raised Cyprus as a first time dad too. A lot to unpack there for sure, she is lucky to have Lee imo.
I think Grace would be a lot more relatable to people if she included some of this, and showed bit of humility. I do often question whether Grace had a hard time bonding with Cyprus due to circumstances too.
Absolutely. I wonder if Grace feels she has to put on this 'superhero' front to the world but really no one is going to judge her negatively if she were to drop this front and actually admit that actually, sometimes things are bloody hard and life can be a struggle. I say this as someone who has had covid twice, the second time quite badly and I have had a lot of time off work with it and I will readily admit that it was hard and it took a lot out of me, so there's no shame in being honest.Agree - I think it would be so valuable for her to talk about the challenges of bonding with Cyprus in those circumstances as well as being more frank about the impacts on those around her.

I get that but Grace has also put this pressure on herself to an extent, back since she was on her journey of healing.Absolutely.

I have to agree and I think that putting Cyprus in clothes featuring tractors and dinosaurs would be a good educational tool for Grace to bond with him. She could do easily begin to teach him about colours and shapes just through his outfit. Instead of complaining about him all the timeI always think kids clothes should reflect their personalities. My son has a wardrobe of bright, colorful clothes with lots of rainbows, tractor, car, trains and animal motifs because it reflects his sunny personality and interestsThat's just my opinion. The poor kids greige wardrobe is the least of his concerns.
Not really?The “but” in this makes it sound like it’s not her choice ???
Think it’s just bad grammar.Not really?
