    In this episode we interview a friend and colleague of the hosts: Tracy Condon. Tracy is a registered social worker with many years experience supporting women and their partners through perinatal loss. This is an arena of grief we often don't speak about and is often not acknowledged.
    In this conversation, Tracy's passion, care and commitment shine through and she encourages listeners to extend compassion to themselves and others.. Virtually all of us have been impacted by perinatal loss (ourselves or someone we know). Even if this loss was decades ago, there is something in this conversation for you.

For those currently going through, or those who will be undergoing, radiation treatment this is a sensitive, personal and informative discussion. His book also highlights his skill as a screenwriter and his background in theatre - who knew reading about radiation oncology could be so interesting and entertaining!
