Grief & Healing
Memories
There are people who walk with us for so long that they become woven into our sense of self. For many, that person is a sibling - the one who witnessed our childhood, shared rooms, argued over small things, and grew alongside us through every season of life.
Grief & Healing
Sibling grief often sits in the background, quiet and unseen. Parents are at the centre of sympathy, the children and the spouse are comforted while brothers and sisters are expected to “be strong.”
Grief used to be confined to homes, places of worship, and gravesides. You mourned with neighbors, relatives, and close friends who showed up in person. But today, grief often spills into digital spaces: WhatsApp groups, Facebook timelines, and even TikTok tributes.
Memories
Grief is rarely a straight line. In Kenya, as in many parts of the world, people experience loss in ways that are deeply personal but also shaped by our cultural, religious, and digital environments. Some losses are expected, others sudden. Some are widely acknowledged, while others are carried in silence. Yet today, grief doesn’t just live in our hearts, homes, or churches. It also shows up in our WhatsApp groups, on Instagram timelines, and in the quiet searches we make on Google late at night. Understanding the different types of grief — and how they manifest online and offline — helps us name our pain and find healthier ways to carry it. This article explores three often misunderstood forms of grief: anticipatory, complicated, and disenfranchised grief.
