Goddess bless him.
I'm working my way through his books and they are full of wisdom and they crack me up. When ever I read them everyone looks at me with that "What are you laughing at" look. Ya know what I'm talking about?
I wish he didn't have Alzheimer's, and I don't want him to die. I'm selfish like that, ya know?
I didn't want David to die either, like I said I'm selfish like that.
But there are things I've learned...One of those things is that I have to put my own wishes aside, I have to put my selfishness aside.
I've learned that there are times that no matter how much you wish and pray and...yes demand. There ain't no getting 'round it.
The person you love is going to die and you've got only one choice. Let them die with dignity, at a time of their choosing or be selfish and drag the dieing on.
There comes a time when a person has to think beyond their own wishes. There comes a time when a person has to move beyond selfishness.
Goddess bless you Terry. I love your books and if I had my wish you would continue writing for 25 more years but...I have to put myself aside and wish you a dignified and peaceful death in your own home with a brandy in you hand.
Peace be with you
