Before you listen to this episode, I want to share two warnings: 1. This episode in particular might be an upsetting listen for someone whose grief is very fresh. 2. There is a reference to paramedics/ambulances which could be triggering. Please take care of yourselves - you being alright today is much more important to me than a podcast download.

This is, without a doubt, the most exposing piece of art I have ever created. I talk about taboos: estrangement, dual loss, substance abuse disorder, and some of my least favorite thoughts that have entered my brain since my dad died.

In this episode, I learn more about CTE, traumatic brain injuries, alcoholism, and whether my dad had all three, or maybe none.
