Reflecting on the sixth anniversary of Fisher’s death in December in an Instagram post, Lourd talked about her feelings on the difficult day.
“Giving birth to my daughter and watching my son meet her have been two of the most magical moments I have ever experienced. But with the magic of life tends to come the reality of grief,” she continued. “My mom is not here to meet either of them and isn’t here to experience any of the magic.”
Lourd admitted that “sometimes the magical moments can also be the hardest.”
“So all I can do is hold onto the magic harder, hug my kids a little tighter. Tell them a story about her. Share her favorite things with them. Tell them how much she would have loved them,” Lourd shared.
“For anyone out there experiencing the reality of grief alongside the magic of life, I see you. You are not alone,” the mom of two concluded. “Don’t ignore either. Life can be magical and griefy at the same time.”
