Comic tells a sad story and how he dealt with it and feeling like he had to 'man up' [warning: tear jerker]

I up voted this not because it is wrong to man up, but because of emotion that this man shows we are capable of in the telling of the story.

Men need to cry sometimes too. I am glad my wife understands this.

The moth is an acclaimed nonprofit organization dedicated to the art of storytelling.

ftr, don't let this ad at the end lead you to believe this was only dramatic interp. It is a true story:

Lost a 2-year-old daughter to cancer, which he spoke about in an American public radio program.

This was very moving. Reminded me of "Pagliacci," the opera about a clown who is betrayed by his wife.
