Thank-you,
I have just been introduced to Stephan by a friend who watched GriefWalker. I am a new subscriber. I enjoyed your interview and will listen to it more than once. I believe the unniverse has made me aware of this concept and I feel I must pursue.

Thank you Ann. I wondered that too at times. Stephen was such a delight to interview. I hope to do it again soon.

Dear Wendy;
I am a palliative care consult nurse and have attended a few conferences where Stephen presented, and participated in a very small way as a consultant/reviewer during the development of Griefwalker. I just listened to the podcast and want to congratulate you. I remember often being left speechless and in deep thought listening to stephen, and as I listened to this podcast, I wondered…Oh God, how is she going to regroup her thoughts to carry this interview for an hour..but you did!!! So again, congratulations!

Hi Wendy,
I hope this finds you well.

There doesn’t seem to be a link to download this podcast. We’re airing a week or so behind what you post so we’re okay for this week but others may be wanting it.

I received this comment both by email and at http://cfrufamily.wordpress.com/contact/ I am so grateful for this sweet feedback. I’m glad to hear how these conversations are so helpful for people. I imagine that Chris would enjoy that his contribution serves in this way too. Thank you again, Wendy

Hello Wendy,
Just wanted to let you know how much my husband and I enjoyed the Easter Show with Chris Mascaro. Chris is our nephew and to listen to him be so caring and speak so openly was wonderful for Bob and I. Chris doesn’t always open up to us and this was so good to hear.
You were so good at listening and letting him get his feelings and thoughts out – thank you. You have a lovely, compassionate voice and we feel that your programs will do so much to help people because you have real life situations and some possible solutions.
Thank you so much.
Bob and Margi Hay
Nanaimo, B.C.

Comment on A Hard Ride Home – Conversations with my seven year old daughter by Karen

Wow, Wendy, interesting story and great article! It reminds me how impatient our whole society is with the so-called “weak link” (such a critical perspective.) What I remember learning as a child was to hurry up and get myself moving at the pace of people who were older and bigger than me, even when it was clearly impossible. Too bad we didn’t have your wise advice back then!

It also reminds me that it’s important to have this level of patience and awareness with people who are older or unwell and may need extra time to think, move, and react.
