This episode discusses the loss of a child to cancer.
While this conversation is essential for families who have experienced this grief, it may be understandably upsetting and so we encourage you to protect your emotional wellbeing.

Jimmy Norman, Aoibheann's loving dad and founder of Aoibheann’s Pink Tie joins me as we honour her life and legacy.
Aoibheann passed away from cancer when she was just 8 years old and the name of the charity is in memory of the pink ties worn by the men at her funeral.
Aoibheann's Pink Tie provides practical and financial support to families dealing with childhood cancer - but here we talk about Aoibheann the girl and the huge ambitious plans she has inspired her dad to pursue.
We also talk about the legacy of grief, Jimmy shares how losing her changed everything including who he was as a father to his other children, the mental health challenges, staying so immersed in the fight against childhood cancer and how his work is no longer a choice but a committment to his little girl and the families she wants him to help today.
