Podcast Description
July of 2024 marked the month our world was shattered. Our hero (dad) was diagnosed with Glioblastoma, a grade IV brain cancer. Our therapists told us to write down our feelings, but we got bored of that, so now we've decided to live out loud. Tune in (or don't) as we talk about life, death, family, love, things that matter and things that don't, all while constantly trying to find the funny moments in our struggle to play the hand we've been dealt. At its best, we hope this helps someone else who's hurting; at its worst, at least it's helping us.

Our therapists told us to write down our feelings, but we got bored of that, so now we’ve decided to live out loud. Tune in (or don’t) as we talk about life, death, family, love, things that matter and things that don’t, all while constantly trying to find the funny moments in our struggle to play the hand we’ve been dealt.
At its best, we hope this helps someone else who’s hurting; at its worst, at least it’s helping us.
In this episode – a year since our dad’s initial accident – we reflect on what has for sure been our most challenging 365 days ever. We check in with one an other, check in on our minds and our bodies, and tangent… a lot. Looking back on this journey so far, it’s still difficult to process that any of this is happening. We are forever grateful for our family and friends, humor (both light and dark), the team that has been caring for our dad, and this outlet that has helped us so much.
