You don't know what it's like till you lose a parent

I'd read many of David's books in which he talks of his parents. Although many are humorous and heartwarming. Others though are sad and bitter. Anyone who's lost a parent knows the grief or reaction can range from hitting you like a load of bricks to indifference and everything in between. My Dad passed away in 2012 so I could sometimes identify with some of the conflicted feelings of sadness but not quite the level of bitterness David had with his father. Though with my mother turning 81 this year I know her day will come she will leave us and I can understand David's and Amy's feelings when they lost their Mom. It's a wonderful and heartwarming segment.
