'We are trying to put our lives back together without Michael and it’s very hard,' Dr Clare Bailey admitted ahead of a dedicated day on the BBC which will pay tribute to the late TV health guru and Mail columnist. But the mother-of-four, who was married to the TV doctor for nearly 40 years, added: 'Not all the time.
We can smile and laugh too. As well as comfort each other.' She continued: 'Grief can feel overwhelming.
Light and beautiful. Catch you by surprise. Feel like the weight of a stone or a sharp pain.
It changes unexpectedly. As people often say, it’s a journey, not all sad and you take each day at a time.' Her comments come ahead of the broadcaster's day of coverage, with programmes scheduled to run across BBC One, Radio 2, Radio 4 and Radio 6 Music on July 12 to honour Dr Mosley following his death.
