'Tai Asks Why': What happens after we die.

“I want to talk about death. About two years ago my grandpa died, I miss him a lot," Tai says. "My grandmother tells me that In the Vietnamese tradition, after a person dies, their soul is kinda’ disoriented for exactly 49 days, but what happens after the 49 days, were does he go?"

In this week’s ‘Tai Asks Why’, Tai turns from science and turns to religion to explore this ultimate human question.

Explore, ‘What Happens When After We Die”, Friday, Feb. 28, with the award-winning CBC podcast 'Tai Asks Why.' on Pea Green Boat at 4 p.m.

Greg Grallo, Chaplain from Hospice of Missoula will also join us and offer suggestions on healthy ways to grieve loss.
