When Whitney met Mary she saw a professional woman with sharp wit and a lively countenance. Like so many grievers, Mary's grief was not visible on her surface.
But when Mary confided in Whitney that she knew something of sudden loss and traumatic grief, when her new boyfriend died in a motorcycle accident, it was clear from the conversation that Mary's experience had changed her life.
Whitney reflected on what she had been like at the age of 24, when life was endless possibilities and she embodied the youthful innocence that nothing bad would ever happen to her. What would that be like to have that ripped away overnight? And how would the 24-year-old Whitney have handled the grief she knows so well now? Whitney believes she would have have done well. And that was why she wanted to have Mary on the show to share a young adult's perception of grief and the ways it has changed her life.
