Shortly after his father's death, Terence began writing a weekly blog about his life adventures as a memoir for his children. What begins as a journey of grief evolves into a series of evocative, candid and often humorous adventures about his life as a child in rural Australia to his current cosmopolitan life in Canada. This emotional and powerful series of short stories begin with his father's diagnosis of terminal brain cancer and his stark realization that he knows so very little about his father and the harsh reality that he only has a short time to get to know him. The similarities between his relationship with his children and the one he had with his father mirror each other, especially given his high demands as a senior executive that take him away from his family on a regular basis. His decision to change the nature of his relationship with his children beginning with his weekly story allows him to gain perspective in his life, which undoubtedly leads to wholesale change. His now celebrated blog is read by more than 30,000 people from around the world and is regarded, as a weekly "must read."
