There's a first for everything

It is my 39th Birthday, and I am reflecting on the fact that this is the first time in my living memory that I have not spoekn to my Mum on my birthday. The first time I have not recieved a message, or made plans to see or speak to her.

How do we navigate the firsts? Are they important? Should we place significance on them, can we help but do so? This episodes explores the challenges I have faced when approaching the first Christmas, Birthdays and family events when the person who would have undoubtebly be there, if not organising the very event is gone.
