Grieving 9/11 With My Mother: Love, Loss & Strength | DEAD Talks (#110)

On September 11th, my mom lost her husband — and I lost my father. For the first time, she joins DEAD Talks to share her story of grief, resilience, and raising her children as a widow in the aftermath of 9/11.

This deeply personal conversation captures how she remembers that day, how she navigated grieving while caring for her kids, and the strength it took to rebuild a life after devastating loss. Her perspective embodies the purpose of this podcast: breaking the silence around grief while honoring love that endures beyond tragedy.

I’m proud to share this episode with the woman who carried me through it all — my mother. Her courage and wisdom are a reminder that grief can break us, but love helps us survive.

About DEAD Talks

DEAD Talks with David Ferrugio approaches death differently. Each guest shares raw stories of grief, loss, or unique perspectives that challenge the “don’t talk about death” taboo. Grief doesn’t end—it evolves. After losing his father on September 11th at just 12 years old, David discovered the power of conversation. Through laughter, tears, and honest dialogue, DEAD Talks helps make it a little easier to talk about death, mourning, trauma, and the life that continues beyond it.
