I have mad respect for Chad taking this time off to re-set, be with family, ground and center himself and then seeing what the wide open future has to offer! Also love the obvious affection you two have, Chad and Mo. Love and blessings to you both!

Well Said ! Funeral are closure for many ! Viewings and for children is way to say to goodbye ! Children to see then that person disappear don’t understand . You can say well they are at peace and now Im Christian so my children and grandchildren raised in the church as my children were . So they know about heaven . So know at peace and at rest to be with God ! Again firmly believe for closure or to be at peace and say until we meet again just to talk gives a child or loved one comfort ! So I understand where Chad is coming from . How he feels ! That he didn’t get hasn’t had that ! God Bless him ! Praying he finds that inner peace and comfort will be praying for him ! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

What I loved most about these interviews with Chad was hearing him laugh, truly laugh. I don't think that we have ever heard Michael laugh. Chad is a funny guy. I know he will be missed as Michael, but I can understand why it's the right time for him to step away, even if it's just for a short time or permanent. My husband passed away unexpectedly and I was alone when they had told me he has died.. then 13 months later my dad passed away. I lost the two most important men in my life in just over a year... I understand sometimes you have to just step away from everything to find yourself again. Just the ramblings of an old lady. Thanks for sharing, see you next time.

[@sandilang3845]

Chad touched my heart in a way that I could feel his confusion and pain. I am so very sorry for your loss and heartbreak. I’ve cried your tears and felt your pain, take your time to process and heal, there is no specific time to heal. Please remember your dad will be with you always because you are part of each other. Your art as an actor is untouchable because you are a natural, and an honor to your art. Saying you will be missed goes without question, but take your time to live your life outside of GH. May this break fill your heart with hope and love and your days ahead with joy and laughter.

[@RiverSky.48]

Powerful show. Thank you both. My observation on funerals = Funerals are for the living. Funerals are powerful ways to celebrate people's lives. I do not understand funerals where they never talk about the person who has passed. I organized the funerals for my parents, and I had people from all aspects of their lives talk. My parents were AMAZING. And everyone who spoke about them had such phenomenal and insightful observations about them. I was so close to both my parents, but I still learned about them from different speakers I had at each of their services. I have had friends tell me they were the best funerals they ever attended. But that need to honor their lives kept me going.

[@ambsat]

That is so true about learning about your loved one, parents, in new ways based on others' experiences and impressions of them. That happened to me after my dad died...several people wrote me letters, telling stories, relating their relationship with my father...and also how he spoke to them of me...that touched me so, and showed me a different view in others' eyes of my dad. I love that. In my opinion, whatever shape the service or memorial takes... So important to do something that honors their lives, helps us honor them and helps us feel better in doing so. Bless you, Chad...I hope you get that. Understandable why you feel the need to step back from GH at this time, focus on your grief and your new son for a while. I do hope to see you back as Michael one day, but it's up to you, and take your time.

[@denisemoore9316]

My heart goes out to Chad. I understand how you are feeling! My mother died years ago and losing her felt like my heart was breaking! My grief was off the charts! I had also been sick during that time. Then it hit me that my kids were watching and were in fear of losing me! Realizing that made me focus on them and not my loss! I still would breakdown every now and then but I would try to remember something my mother would say. I still to this day have my moments but it’s not like it was for the first day, weeks, months and year. It gets better!!! I was never one for funerals as a kid and then an adult. Kids don’t understand death and it can be scary for them! Taking time for you to process your loss in understandable. There’s also that fear of losing someone else. With that we just have to trust God in our journey!

[@d.a.delgado8187]

My heart goes out to you, Chad Duell. I am not even sure that a funeral would have given you closure. It will come when it comes and accepting it. It often comes in waves. I recently lost an adult child, with severe mental illness and not living at home when it happened. Even going through all the arrangements and grooming him, I struggle to accept I will never see him again. A memorial might help you. Focus on what your dad taught you, and the laughter and the love. 😮

[@jennellmutch9985]

Love this one. I have type 2 diabetes, also I have severe vascular issues. I have had 3 heart surgeries , one leg removed. Now my other leg is going in the next 2 months. Sad part is , I spent 30 years in Healthcare taking care of patients. I ate decently, I took care of these folks so I did everything I could. I seriously thought I would work until I was in my late 60s and enjoy the rest of my life. Now the rest of my life is almost over and I am only 56. I have 4 grandbabies, I love so much, but thanks to these issues and insurance I am paying out the ass for my wheel chair , and other things that I need. I never thought my life would end this way. Sad part is the doctor told me, it's not so much anything that I had or hadn't done. My mom, grampa , aunt , cousin an grandmother all had these same issues. My mom lived the longest, she was 77, but she had heart and vascular issues 20 years prior. She almost died more than once . It's tough

Funerals, yes closure can be important and the first time a parent dies is super rough and raw. Hugs I have been there like so many. I wish you well Chad. My mom passed first, heart attack due to diabetes but 2 not 1. Was a huge shock to my system seeing her. Not sure everyone needs that. But some do. Looking back I could do without those memories of watching my dad pass and seeing my mom just after. Can be shocking to the system. I hope Chad gets through okay. Thank you Maurice for your podcast.

[@betsybabf748]

My husband died suddenly at 45, and only four weeks later, my mother was diagnosed with terminal stage 4 lung and brain cancer. That was her first cancer diagnosis, and it quickly went to end-of-life care. I was thrown into providing end-of-life care as a shell-shocked new widow with 5 grieving children. Right after my mother died, one best friend died suddenly at 43 of a cardiac arrest due to her Type 1 diabetes and my other best friend was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her cancer was now just found in her liver and spine the week before Christmas. My entire life-long support system wiped out. You have to process it, and if you need help through that...seek it. I put my grief aside to handle everything and focusing on my children's grief, and after awhile I felt like I was going to have a breakdown, making an immediate appointment with my doctor. Nothing will beat you up and test you more in life than grief. 💔💔

[@joycethomas3633]

@betsybabf748 I truly am sorry for your losses. I can't imagine going through all you are. Please get the help you need for yourself. You can't help your children if you don't take care of yourself. I will be praying for you that you find peace somehow. 🙏❤️

[@Ajlk75]

Omg, I can totally relate!! Having 0 experience with death, I also had my entire support system wiped out in the same year, including my oldest son. 3 suicides thst I had to identify bodies of. It's been 6 years, and exactly as you described, I finally had a nervous breakdown a couple years ago. Threw my physical health into shambles all at once (not including mental health, but that's a whole different story). I soooooooo feel your pain and I'm literally, genuinely so sorry for what you have lost. Would not wish this kind of pain on my worst enemy. Thank God people are speaking up about the grief and loss pain shattering their world, it allows others to know they're not alone or feeling "crazy." Special thanks to Mo for creating this channel.....without it I probably would've committed myself into a hospital thinking I was forever broken. Keep smiling.... that's what they would want. ❤

Chad, thank you opening up to talk about some of the most difficult things going on with you right now! When I lost my son-in-law (who was more like my own son because I never had a son), he was 42 yrs old and died in a car crash. It to me 2 years to completely process it, as I navigated how to help my daughter and the 4 kids. I wouldn't say the grief gets easier, but I think it finds its own place in your life so it doesn't destroy you. I'm praying for you and your family. ❤

[@kellyfinley9800]

Losing your parents is hard, no matter the age. Same as losing a spouse and I’ve lost all three. A memorial is helpful for closure if there can be one. I’d suggest counseling as soon as possible just to work through these issues. If you are spiritual, Grief share is a wonderful resource. Praying for Chad and his family 💜
