Leah Pearlman drew uplifting comics to help her heal after her father’s death from lung cancer.

Technologist Leah Pearlman was working at her dream job at Facebook when she learned her father’s lung cancer was in remission. Realizing that she hadn’t adequately processed her emotions, she started drawing comics and sharing them with friends online. When the cancer returned and her father passed away, Pearlman quit her job and drew more comics to give her hope through her grief. Her inspiring and uplifting comics offer hope and advice for life and love.
