In fact, news of his death has me grieving my own mother again. That ongoing grief is the search that brought me here tonight. My uncle also died from this a year before my mother’s diagnosis.

I bought his book on a recent trip back home. It was not where my mother was buried but where she was born and raised. This news of Randy Pausch reminded me that I must complete paperwork as participation in a familial story, and read that book! I have listened to part of the lecture and realize how badly I need to move forward at this stage of life.

Thanks for letting me share.
