JHFH: No family is perfect, but you can work with your dysfunctions and still have a strong relationship. He tries to make things perfect with his family before he goes under the knife. Despite perfection being largely unachievable, he really starts to open up to his kids and treat them with respect. But I don’t want to make it seem like the cliché of ‘I’m dying and must therefore come to terms with things in my life.’ He’s not going to die. Nevertheless, cancer...
