Losing a Parent: Todd Elkins

Losing a parent is truly a unique form of pain, grief and loss. Our parents guide and protect us. They take care of us when we're sick, pick us up when we fall, and provide unconditional love. No matter how old you are, no one is ever truly ready to lose a parent. This is the first of what we're hoping to be a series of conversations Jonathan has with people who have had to say goodbye to their Mom and/or Dad, and how they've learned to cope with life ever since. In our inaugural episode, Jonathan chats with his friend and colleague, Todd Elkins, about the loss of his father.
