Mary, I've now read the story. I actually bought the book. Her style is fascinating - so dry yet gets to the heart of things. The second story in the book was A Long and Painful Death. Also wonderful. The pod cast is next.

Will look this up. ... One comment and now a list of wonderful things to read. Maybe I can manage to live to 110 - LOL
Exactly how I feel reading this. Being a slow reader, I’d have to add more years to this.
DO read this. And listen to the podcast. It’s an incredible story, and of course George.
