A Heart That Works by Rob Delaney

emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.5

Oh, I wasn't prepared to cry this morning. The writing here is not literary. It is—dare I say—somewhat crass. But it oozes love and sincerity and grief, the big human feelings that are intensified by such a tragedy of losing your son when he's only two.

Reading it has me wanting to give my parents a hug and thank them for loving me unconditionally. For that is all we can offer!
