My Wife Would Be So P****d If I Ruined My Life Because She Died’: How a Widow's Daily Poems Became a Lifeline of Healing and Connection

  • サマリー

  • What if grief could inspire healing? Dive into Michael Sudman’s deeply moving story of turning daily updates during his wife’s final days into a journal of love, grace, and purpose.


    In today's episode, I'm joined by the Family Law Attorney and Writer Michael Sudman. Michael shares his journey of navigating grief and finding healing through writing after the loss of his wife, Cheryl. He reveals his deeply personal experience of losing his wife to pancreatic cancer and how that led him to embrace writing as a way to process grief and connect with others.


    Throughout this episode, Michael recounts how his wife Cheryl's battle with cancer, which lasted just 62 days after her diagnosis, inspired him to write daily updates for family and friends—updates that ultimately formed the basis of his book, A 62 Day Journey: Love, Light, and Grace. The book documents those updates and celebrates Cheryl's grace and strength during her final days. Michael discusses how writing became a crucial part of his healing process, leading to the creation of daily poems he shares with hundreds of people. His poetry, deeply influenced by gratitude and reflections on life, has expanded into a second collection, Inside My Insides: A Collection of Thoughts. He highlights the importance of community support, particularly the Grief and Happiness Alliance, which inspired much of his creative output.


    Tune in to episode 294 of Grief and Happiness to hear Michael's heartfelt journey of transforming his grief into a daily writing practice, creating profound connections and inspiring art that celebrates love, resilience, and healing.
