Today's episode features UK-based cartoonist and illustrator Gary Andrews (@garyscribbler). While a daily doodle was a way for him to record the general happenings of life, the project took on new meaning after the sudden passing of his wife, Joy.
Through this project, Gary chronicled his grief journey, providing insights into the pain, reflections, and perseverance that he and his two young children experienced in the days, weeks, months, and years since Joy's death. A collection of these illustrations are now available in the book, Finding Joy.
Produced by Nick Rumaczyk. Theme music: "P to the A" by Anonymous Novels.
