I wish I could have told my father he wouldn't suffer. But I didn't and couldn't | Paul Daley

When I think of Dad, it’s his awful death my mind fixes on. That’s why I’m so glad Andrew Denton has started a new conversation about death and dying in Australia
It is eight years almost to the minute, as I write, since my father died.
By middle age, most of us have had at least one parent die. We’re lucky if we haven’t lost both or, indeed, a sibling or too many friends.
