My Dead Parents

I personally do not have dead parents. I know this is a sensitive subject for many people. I do love this podcast. Past the first episode it gets better. It gives me insight on people who have gone through this loss. I like that there is elements of humor mixed with raw emotion and sadness. It’s realistic.

absolutely love this show!!!

She should receive an 0scar for this performance. Apparently, she wrote the script. This is Wanda Arnett. Courtney completely fabricated 90% of this story. How she found this type of humor in her father’s death is beyond me? Jim was an intelligent man. He was educated enough to send her to all of the top schools and yet she speaks about him in this manner. It’s disheartening. Her recollection of the facts of his death are very wrong. If she saw a therapist, my suggestion is to see another one because it didn’t work. I actually felt a little sorry for her. Jim loved Courtney with all his heart. People divorce, fall out of love with their spouse but they still love their children. He loved me unconditionally and Courtney could not accept it.

One of the biggest feelings of grief is isolation, especially if it’s due to tragic circumstances. I lost both of my parents before I turned 30 and neither made it to their 60th birthday. Listening to Bree and others talk about their experiences strangely gives me comfort, levity and a feeling that I’m not in fact alone. For anyone that has lost a parent - in particular at a young age, I couldn’t recommend this enough.
