What do yard sales and tattoos have to do with grief?
This event will be the live recording of a Sickboy podcast episode featuring Mary Ellen Macdonald and Susan Cadell who will discuss their grief and grief literacy research with the hosts. Examples will include many aspects of grief literacy, including how yard sales and and memorial tattoos are perfect social locations from which to launch conversation and civic engagement in all things grief related.
Sickboy is determined to break down the stigma associated with illness and disease. Jeremie, Brian and Taylor tackle health taboos with people who have experienced them firsthand. Taking the lead from Jeremie's life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis, the three best friends help listeners understand that sometimes the best way to deal with illness, disease and life is simply to laugh. The Sickboy podcast began in Halifax at the Central Library. It has grown into a wildly popular CBC podcast that has endured.
Join us for this event as part of the Good Grief Nova Scotia week by listening to the Sickboy boys, Taylor, Jeremie, and Brian, interview Mary Ellen Macdonald and Susan Cadell.
