I am so proud and amazed at your constant courage ,your ability to have an open heart…both in your writings and living…..there’s no doubt that Sash treasured you both immensely and there wasn’t a time she wasn’t loved and supported in her wee life here ❤️❤️
Binu, I am moved always not just because of what you write, which is immense in its emotional wisdom, but how you write it. How you speak from the depths. Grateful every time you choose to share your experience with us. Within and beyond grief.
Binu, your posts always overwhelm me and I cannot think straight while reading it. You should consider turning this writing into a book. It will help others battling similar grief.
Dear Rakhi, thanks for this heartfelt response. The book is something I am planning on, but need to build up the courage to access all parts of this journey. So hopefully in a couple of years time.
Binu, good to see a post from you, been a while. I admire how you have so slowly and steadily come around your situation. Bless you with lots of hugs 🤗
"This is by no means easy. It confuses me, angers me, and sends me down different rabbit holes of anguish." - Your writing is so beautiful and honest Binu. Thank you for sharing a piece of what you hold in your heart and your mind.
I am here on Substack also so I can read your writing, Binu. Thank you for opening your world to us. Your writing is brave, tender, honest <3
This is so resonant also because I can already feel the intensity of my emotions change and evolve and I don't like it. The intensity helped me inhabit my dad's absence better.
This is beautiful Binu. I love you. not a day goes by when I dont think of Sakshi. The candle lies on the reception desk of the theatre, and at my desk at work. I wish you all the strength for these new plans.
Thanks Sandhya. Look forward to what you have to say, but in the meantime, sending hugs and strength your way. I have no idea where the emoticons are hiding on Substack when I access it on my laptop. But know I have clicked a few hearts in my head :)

Oh I know what you mean! Relearning to inhabit this new shape grief adopts without a by-your-leave is hard. Makes us feel like traitors at times.
