Chapter 4: The Shadow of my Drunk Father

Chapter 4 brings us forward in time, to the part where my family falls apart. We hear directly from my Dad, thanks to an AA testimonial recording we were given after he died, and compare his narrative with our memories.

I finally get some answers to the burning questions from my childhood about what really happened during all those years, how much people knew, and how my sister's experiences differed from mine.

And we revisit the moment when we said our goodbyes, taking a fresh look at how everything ended with him.

Chapter 1: Where it all Begins

When my parents died, I found myself wondering if it's possible to heal old wounds by taking a fresh look at the past. After some time, some distance, and loads of therapy, I set out on a project to do exactly that - enlisting the help of friends and family along the way. What I found was not what I expected - and it changed me, forever. 

This is the first chapter of that story, an introduction to all the questions I had and all the answers I hoped to uncover along the way.
