With Mum’s father recently passing away, we decided to provide listeners with an update and some insight into what’s been happening behind the scenes. This episode is the last of 3 on my grandfather’s decline; the first 2 will remain behind the paywall on Substack, as they were a little raw and perhaps not appropriate for wide release. Thanks for listening! ☺️🙏

Mum & I get into the nuances of my upbringing, failing to integrate with a stepfamily that was never defined. I discuss my mixed feelings and discomfort, reminiscing about a time that seems surreal in hindsight, as well as my anxieties over being replaced by someone else’s children. Thanks for listening! ☺️🙏
