Carrying the Tiger: Love Practiced in the Presence of Death

What does love become when there is no cure ~ only time, devotion, and choice?

In this episode of Skin & Soul, I sit with Tony Stewart to talk about Carrying the Tiger - a memoir that refuses to sentimentalize illness, grief, or recovery.

We talk about:

• loving someone while they are dying

• caregiving as an act of intimacy

• how grief lives in the body, not the calendar

• the moment joy returns — and the guilt that can follow

• loving again without erasing what came before

This is a conversation about staying present when life cannot be fixed.
About learning to live with your hands open.
About what it means to carry love forward, while remaining with life.
