I'm joined on this episode by Mona Gustafson, author of the multi-layered, multi-generational story of her family: My Father's House: Remembering My Swedish American Family. She's bright, inquisitive, an emeritus professor, and a therapist.

She's also the editor of This Sucks!: I Want to Live. After receiving a terminal diagnosis, Nick Spooner began documenting his thoughts and emotions on Facebook where his voice continued for two months until his last entry—"It sucks."
