Description

In this episode of The 10 Ninety Podcast, Mason talks with Coop (Michael Cooper) and his wife Annalise Cooper from Australia about losing both of Coop's parents, Faye and Neil Cooper, just five months apart after Faye's double lung transplant. They walk through the brutal hospital moments, the decision to remove life support, and the shock of Neil's stage-four cancer diagnosis that came before they'd even finished paying for the first funeral. Together they talk about anger, feeling robbed, raising their two girls without their grandparents, men learning to talk about grief, and the small things that help—music, therapy, quitting drinking, and letting other people in. This conversation is a raw, honest look at love, loss, and how you keep moving when life refuses to let up.
