Is it possible to grieve the loss of someone while they're still living? For example, someone you're estranged from or maybe a loved one suffering from Alzheimer's or dementia.

The answer is "yes" and in this episode Larry speaks with Dr. Stacey Pinatelli, about this specific form of grief, called Ambiguous Loss that's more widespread than you might think.

New York Times bestselling author, Ann Hood, joins Larry on this episode of What About Grief? She shares how grief and joy can actually share space in our aching hearts and have also been interwoven through her life following the death of her 5-year old daughter, Grace, in 2002 and the wise advice that helped her return to writing again.
