Although I tell parts of my family’s story in public, I realized that I never told the hardest parts, the ones I most needed someone to hear. Eventually I was invited by Phil Doyer, author of Conversations on Dying to not censor myself. Writing it all out and having it posted on his website took a hundred pounds off my back. There are 3 parts to “Giving in Colours.”

Sometimes what we need the most is just to be able to tell.
