Wow!!! My beautiful (he said handsome-but he was also beautiful!!! ) husband was diagnosed in April 2015 with testicular cancer and died in August 2015. Ricky, you have captured every ugly and beautiful moment perfectly in this series. I am still here because there is something (our incredibly amazing kids, dogs, cats and rabbit) that needs me. You have given so many people energy to keep going. We all think the world should be aware of our suffering and pain and that translates into expecting acceptance for obnoxious behaviour and disregard for what people around us may be dealing with. You have brilliantly orchestrated situations in this series that make you think of others. Grief is grief and it is no worse or easier for anyone. It just is. Thank you (although I have been a sobbing mess) for challenging the world to learn from and help each other. Just being kind really does work!
