Laughter Through Tears


Hugh Grant's quirky sense of humor helped his mother through pain. The "Love Actually" star is quoted in "What Can I Do to Help? 75 Practical Ideas for Family and Friends from Cancer's Frontline" on how he cheered up his mother by playing tricks on her after she was hit with the disease.

His "favorite" was "secretly activating her hospital bed so that the head and legs both lifted to put her in an amusing jack-knife position," he wrote. "I blow-dried her hair on the day before she died, which was frankly not the success I had hoped for, and which may — I now concede — have finished her off."
