What I liked

I loved the portrait she painted of her parents. It was so loving and pure. And her characters of the crazy nurses that took care of them were SO freaking funny!

What I didn't like

I gotta hear more about this ex husband…

My overall impression

This show is the epitome of vulnerability in the most beautiful way. I felt so privileged to witness Dionne’s telling of this deeply tragic story and was taken with her strength and humor through it all. This felt like such an honest portrayal of grief, and a great show about how funny the worst parts of our lives can be.
