Jonathan, Thank you for your thoughts and insights. Know that I will miss you when the time comes. You have had and continue to have a remarkable impact on my life. I felt a twinge of survivor’s guilt today. In my world of medicine, some of the cruelest things unfortunately happen to the nicest people. My wife was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer this year. So far we have fared well and she is in remission, a survivor. Your legacy is huge and will survive you for generations. Thank you for the gifts you have bestowed on me and countless others. Cheers, Bill
Another great article with transparent insights that even makes living in the dust of another remodel sound sexy. I am sorry to hear about your beck pain due to metastasis. Please let medicine do its job of helping you live your best life by diminishing the pain as much as possible. Much love, Bill
Simply beautiful. You have always led by example and are again doing so admirably in your premature final chapter. I recall Randy Pausch’s “Last Lecture”. Your blogs about your “last lap” have the makings of a book on how best to live in order to die well and peacefully. If you write it, I might call it The Final Chapter. I find it a special privilege to know you, to have shared some time together, and to be a little part of your journey.
Jonathan, In living, you have shown us how to live. In dying, you are also showing us how to live. The transparency of your journey is inspiring and informative. There is another book here!;) Bill
