Show Notes
Sue discusses the death of her son Karl in 2019, aged just 39, following a 9-year battle with
Melanoma, the subsequent grief and how she keeps his memory alive.
She talks about experiencing a parent’s worst nightmare of losing a child, the significance of
a grasshopper in the family and how hosting a special event with Karl’s best friends had a
cathartic effect on her grief.
