#246 Living with Grief and Sharing It All – Mark Burkholder, Writer and Content Creator

from Best Life Best Death · host Diane Hullet

When Mark Burkholder’s wife, Paige, was diagnosed with a very rare, very aggressive form of cancer, what did they do? They dug in, pushed hard, and faced the truth. They knew very quickly that this cancer had a 5-year survival rate of 0%, so they leaned into treatment and living deeply as best they could. After Paige died, Mark began posting videos online about the experience, using photos and videos that they had taken together. His honest, truth-filled, public grieving has struck a chord with folks who are taking in his video essays about grief, cancer, and caregiving. I loved this honest and articulate conversation!For more information on Best Life Best Death please visit our website at ⁠⁠www.bestlifebestdeath.com⁠⁠Follow us on our social channels to receive pertinent and helpful resources on death, grieving, and more at:Facebook: ⁠⁠www.facebook.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠www.instagram.com/bestlifebestdeath⁠⁠
