Lastly, we finish the interview with the Fatherhood Quick Five.  About Charles Bock Charles Bock had been a reluctant father, tagging along for the ride of parenthood, obsessed primarily with his dream of a writing career. But when his daughter Lily was six months old, his wife, Diana, was diagnosed with a complex form of leukemia. Two and half years later, all treatments and therapies exhausted, Charles found himself a widower—devastated, drowning in medical bills, and saddled with a daunting responsibility.  To nurture Lily, and somehow, maybe even heal himself, Charles would have to change. I Will Do Better is the pull-no-punches account of what happened next and how this middle-aged boy-man and his plucky child were able to find their way together. Charles has two daughters and he lives in New York City. Make sure you pick up his book,I Will Do Better: A Father’s Memoir of Heartbreak, Parenting, and Love wherever you get books.
