As a person who had a long time meditation practice, Joe DiNardo had carried himself through hard times with presence and grace. But his wife's diagnosis with pancreatic cancer required that he bring every resource he had to each moment. He was sustained by his practice and also by an acute sense of his love for her and his absolute commitment to be with her every step of the way. How did his meditation practice help him do that? What sustained him through the loss of his life partner and love? And how does his experience show itself in his grief and life after his loss? Impassioned about the potential of simple presence to see us through life's most difficult experiences, Joe shares his own story in hopes of supporting others through their own hard times.
