The Grief Pod with Venetia Quick - Lets Talk About Grief featuring Julia Kelly
Author Julia Kelly’s Mum, Delphine passed away swimming in The Galápagos Islands in 2012. While her new book Still is a memoir of her Mum, it is also her way of saying, goodbye.
In this episode of The Grief Pod, Julia talks about her Mum and how she embraced life following the death of Julia’s Dad, John. She also talks about the trauma of giving birth to her baby, Lucia, 17 weeks into her pregnancy, and the inhumane way her late partner Charlie spent his last days with dementia, separated from his family during COVID.
