Andrew
Garfield and Elmo are
about
to
make
you
cry.
The We
Live
in
Time actor
paid
a
special
visit
to Sesame
Street,
where
he
and
Elmo
took
a
few
moments to
chat
through
their
feelings
on
grief,
something
Andrew
has
been
very
open
about
since
the death
of
his
mother Lynn Garfield from
pancreatic
cancer
in
2019.
“Elmo’s
going
around
Sesame
Street,
checking
in
on
everybody,”
the
Muppet
began. “So
Elmo
wants
to
know
how
Andrew’s
doing.”
Andrew
acknowledged
he
was “so
happy
to
see
Elmo”
before
adding, “I’m
just
thinking
about
my
mum
today.
You
know,
she
passed
away
not
too
long
ago,
and
I
just
miss
her.
Miss
her
a
lot.”
Elmo
shared
that
he
was
so “sorry
to
hear
that,”
to
which
Andrew
replied, “It’s
okay.
You
don’t
have
to
say
sorry.
It’s
actually
kind
of
okay
to
miss
somebody.”
“That
sadness,
it’s
kind
of
a
gift,”
the
41-year-old
continued. “It’s
kind
of
a
lovely
thing
to
feel,
in
a
way,
because
it
means
you
really
loved
somebody
when
you
miss
them.”
