  • Thank you!

    Jen, thank you so much for this podcast. I lost my husband of 29 years 2.5 months ago. I started listening 4 months ago while he was sick knowing I was a widow in waiting. He suffered from an extremely rare neurological disease for 3 years. The comfort and knowledge shared here has been indispensable and has brought hope and light in the midst of so much pain to me.
